Successes and challenges in using machine-learned activation energies in kinetic simulations.

The Journal of chemical physics
The prediction of the thermodynamic and kinetic properties of chemical reactions is increasingly being addressed by machine-learning (ML) methods, such as artificial neural networks (ANNs). While a number of recent studies have reported success in pr...

Turning Failures into Applications: The Problem of Protein ΔΔG Prediction.

Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.)
After nearly two decades of research in the field of computational methods based on machine learning and knowledge-based potentials for ΔG and ΔΔG prediction upon variations, we now realize that all the approaches are poorly performing when tested on...

Classical and Machine Learning Methods for Protein - Ligand Binding Free Energy Estimation.

Current drug metabolism
Binding free energy estimation of drug candidates to their biomolecular target is one of the best quantitative estimators in computer-aided drug discovery. Accurate binding free energy estimation is still a challengeable task even after decades of re...

Improving the accuracy and convergence of drug permeation simulations via machine-learned collective variables.

The Journal of chemical physics
Understanding the permeation of biomolecules through cellular membranes is critical for many biotechnological applications, including targeted drug delivery, pathogen detection, and the development of new antibiotics. To this end, computer simulation...

Computationally predicting binding affinity in protein-ligand complexes: free energy-based simulations and machine learning-based scoring functions.

Briefings in bioinformatics
Accurately predicting protein-ligand binding affinities can substantially facilitate the drug discovery process, but it remains as a difficult problem. To tackle the challenge, many computational methods have been proposed. Among these methods, free ...

Protein sequence design by conformational landscape optimization.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
The protein design problem is to identify an amino acid sequence that folds to a desired structure. Given Anfinsen's thermodynamic hypothesis of folding, this can be recast as finding an amino acid sequence for which the desired structure is the lowe...

Machine Learning-Based Scoring Functions, Development and Applications with SAnDReS.

Current medicinal chemistry
BACKGROUND: Analysis of atomic coordinates of protein-ligand complexes can provide three-dimensional data to generate computational models to evaluate binding affinity and thermodynamic state functions. Application of machine learning techniques can ...

A machine learning based intramolecular potential for a flexible organic molecule.

Faraday discussions
Quantum mechanical predictive modelling in chemistry and biology is often hindered by the long time scales and large system sizes required of the computational model. Here, we employ the kernel regression machine learning technique to construct an an...

Deep learning for variational multiscale molecular modeling.

The Journal of chemical physics
Molecular simulations are widely applied in the study of chemical and bio-physical problems. However, the accessible timescales of atomistic simulations are limited, and extracting equilibrium properties of systems containing rare events remains chal...

Radical scavenging activity of natural antioxidants and drugs: Development of a combined machine learning and quantum chemistry protocol.

The Journal of chemical physics
Many natural substances and drugs are radical scavengers that prevent the oxidative damage to fundamental cell components. This process may occur via different mechanisms, among which, one of the most important, is hydrogen atom transfer. The feasibi...
