IR Frequency Region: Fingerprint Region01:03

IR Frequency Region: Fingerprint Region

1.7K
IR spectra are divided into two main regions: the diagnostic region and the fingerprint region. The diagnostic region of the spectrum lies above 1500 cm−1. The absorptions resulting from single-bond vibrations of the N–H, C–H, and O–H stretch at higher wavenumbers and appear on the left side of the spectrum. The stretching absorptions of the C≡C and C≡N occur between 2100–2300 cm−1. In contrast, those arising from stretching absorptions of the...

Area of Science:

  • Computational chemistry
  • Drug discovery
  • Artificial intelligence in medicine

Background:

  • Developing novel, effective drug candidates is a critical challenge in pharmaceutical research.
  • Existing methods for generating compound libraries may lack structural novelty or target specificity.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce PROFIS, a novel generative model for designing structurally novel and target-focused compound libraries.
  • To demonstrate the model's capability in identifying potential novel ligands for specific drug targets.
  • To showcase the application of PROFIS in scaffold-hopping for exploring new chemical spaces.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing a recurrent neural network trained to decode molecular fingerprints into SMILES strings.
  • Employing a biological activity predictor trained on fingerprint embeddings to identify high-activity subspaces.
  • Applying a Bayesian optimization algorithm to search for optimal latent representations.

Main Results:

  • PROFIS successfully generates structurally novel and target-focused compound libraries.
  • The model demonstrates effectiveness in scaffold-hopping, enabling the design of ligands outside explored chemical spaces.
  • Application to dopamine D2 receptor ligands showcases the protocol's potential for drug discovery.

Conclusions:

  • PROFIS offers a versatile and effective approach for generating diverse compound libraries for any biological target.
  • The model's ability to explore novel chemical spaces accelerates the identification of potential drug candidates.
  • Shared scripts on GitHub ensure the widespread applicability and adoption of the PROFIS protocol.
