In this work, we propose MEDICO, a Multi-viEw Deep generative model for molecule generation, structural optimization, and the SARS-CoV-2 Inhibitor disCOvery. To the best of our knowledge, MEDICO is the first-of-this-kind graph generative model that can generate molecular graphs similar to the structure of targeted molecules, with a multi-view representation learning framework to sufficiently and adaptively learn comprehensive structural semantics from targeted molecular topology and geometry. We show that our MEDICO significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art methods in generating valid, unique, and novel molecules under benchmarking comparisons. In particular, we showcase the multi-view deep learning model enables us to generate not only the molecules structurally similar to the targeted molecules but also the molecules with desired chemical properties, demonstrating the strong capability of our model in exploring the chemical space deeply. Moreover, case study results on targeted molecule generation for the SARS-CoV-2 main protease (Mpro) show that by integrating molecule docking into our model as chemical priori, we successfully generate new small molecules with desired drug-like properties for the Mpro, potentially accelerating the de novo design of Covid-19 drugs. Further, we apply MEDICO to the structural optimization of three well-known Mpro inhibitors (N3, 11a, and GC376) and achieve ~88% improvement in their binding affinity to Mpro, demonstrating the application value of our model for the development of therapeutics for SARS-CoV-2 infection.

与靶蛋白具有高结合亲和力的药物样分子的产生仍然是药物发现中的一项困难和资源密集型任务。现有的方法主要采用强化学习,马尔可夫采样或以高斯过程为指导的深层生成模型,在生成具有高结合亲和力的分子时,通过基于计算量的物理学方法计算出的高结合亲和力。我们提出了对分子(豪华轿车)的潜在构成主义,它通过类似于Inceptionism的技术显着加速了分子的产生。豪华轿车采用序列的两个神经网络采用变异自动编码器生成的潜在空间和性质预测,从而使基于梯度的分子特性更快地基于梯度的反相比。综合实验表明,豪华轿车在基准任务上具有竞争力,并且在产生具有高结合亲和力的类似药物的化合物的新任务上,其最先进的技术表现出了最先进的技术,可针对两个蛋白质靶标达到纳摩尔范围。我们通过对绝对结合能的基于更准确的基于分子动力学的计算来证实这些基于对接的结果,并表明我们生成的类似药物的化合物之一的预测$ k_d $(结合亲和力的量度)为$ 6 \ cdot 10^ {-14} $ m针对人类雌激素受体,远远超出了典型的早期药物候选物和大多数FDA批准的药物的亲和力。代码可从https://github.com/rose-stl-lab/limo获得。

深度生成模型吸引了具有所需特性的分子设计的极大关注。大多数现有模型通过顺序添加原子来产生分子。这通常会使产生的分子与目标性能和低合成可接近性较少。诸如官能团的分子片段与分子性质和合成可接近的比原子更密切相关。在此,我们提出了一种基于片段的分子发生模型,其通过顺序向任何给定的起始分子依次向任何给定的起始分子添加分子片段来设计具有靶性质的新分子。我们模型的一个关键特征是属性控制和片段类型方面的高概括能力。通过以自动回归方式学习各个片段对目标属性的贡献来实现前者。对于后者,我们使用深神经网络,其从两个分子的嵌入载体中预测两个分子的键合概率作为输入。在用金砖石分解方法制备片段文库的同时隐式考虑所生成的分子的高合成可用性。我们表明该模型可以以高成功率同时控制多个目标性质的分子。即使在培训数据很少的财产范围内,它也与看不见的片段同样很好地工作,验证高概括能力。作为一种实际应用,我们证明,在对接得分方面,该模型可以产生具有高结合亲和力的潜在抑制剂,其抗对接得分的3CL-COV-2。

药物发现对于保护人免受疾病至关重要。基于目标的筛查是过去几十年来开发新药的最流行方法之一。该方法有效地筛选了候选药物在体外抑制靶蛋白,但由于体内所选药物的活性不足,它通常失败。需要准确的计算方法来弥合此差距。在这里,我们提出了一个新的图形多任务深度学习模型,以识别具有目标抑制性和细胞活性(matic)特性的化合物。在经过精心策划的SARS-COV-2数据集中,提出的Matic模型显示了与传统方法相比,在筛选体内有效化合物方面的优点。接下来,我们探索了模型的解释性,发现目标抑制(体外)或细胞活性(体内)任务的学习特征与分子属性相关性和原子功能专注不同。基于这些发现,我们利用了基于蒙特卡洛的增强性学习生成模型来生成具有体外和体内功效的新型多毛皮化合物,从而弥合了基于靶基于靶基于靶标的药物和基于细胞的药物发现之间的差距。

通过生成模型生成具有特定化学和生物学特性的新分子已成为药物发现的有希望的方向。但是,现有的方法需要大型数据集进行广泛的培训/微调,在现实世界中通常无法使用。在这项工作中,我们提出了一个新的基于检索的框架,用于可控分子生成。我们使用一系列的示例分子,即(部分)满足设计标准的分子,以引导预先训练的生成模型转向满足给定设计标准的合成分子。我们设计了一种检索机制,该机制将示例分子与输入分子融合在一起,该分子受到一个新的自我监督目标训练,该目标可以预测输入分子的最近邻居。我们还提出了一个迭代改进过程,以动态更新生成的分子和检索数据库,以更好地泛化。我们的方法不可知生成模型,不需要特定于任务的微调。关于从简单设计标准到设计与SARS-COV-2主蛋白酶结合的铅化合物的具有挑战性的现实世界情景的各种任务,我们证明了我们的方法外推出了远远超出检索数据库,并且比检索数据库更高,并且比更高的性能和更广泛的适用性以前的方法。

虽然最近在许多科学领域都变得无处不在,但对其评估的关注较少。对于分子生成模型,最先进的是孤立或与其输入有关的输出。但是,它们的生物学和功能特性(例如配体 - 靶标相互作用)尚未得到解决。在这项研究中,提出了一种新型的生物学启发的基准,用于评估分子生成模型。具体而言,设计了三个不同的参考数据集,并引入了与药物发现过程直接相关的一组指标。特别是我们提出了一个娱乐指标,将药物目标亲和力预测和分子对接应用作为评估生成产量的互补技术。虽然所有三个指标均在测试的生成模型中均表现出一致的结果,但对药物目标亲和力结合和分子对接分数进行了更详细的比较,表明单峰预测器可能会导致关于目标结合在分子水平和多模式方法的错误结论,而多模式的方法是错误的结论。因此优选。该框架的关键优点是,它通过明确关注配体 - 靶标相互作用,将先前的物理化学域知识纳入基准测试过程,从而创建了一种高效的工具,不仅用于评估分子生成型输出,而且还用于丰富富含分子生成的输出。一般而言,药物发现过程。

Generating molecules that bind to specific proteins is an important but challenging task in drug discovery. Previous works usually generate atoms in an auto-regressive way, where element types and 3D coordinates of atoms are generated one by one. However, in real-world molecular systems, the interactions among atoms in an entire molecule are global, leading to the energy function pair-coupled among atoms. With such energy-based consideration, the modeling of probability should be based on joint distributions, rather than sequentially conditional ones. Thus, the unnatural sequentially auto-regressive modeling of molecule generation is likely to violate the physical rules, thus resulting in poor properties of the generated molecules. In this work, a generative diffusion model for molecular 3D structures based on target proteins as contextual constraints is established, at a full-atom level in a non-autoregressive way. Given a designated 3D protein binding site, our model learns the generative process that denoises both element types and 3D coordinates of an entire molecule, with an equivariant network. Experimentally, the proposed method shows competitive performance compared with prevailing works in terms of high affinity with proteins and appropriate molecule sizes as well as other drug properties such as drug-likeness of the generated molecules.

Molecular conformation generation aims to generate three-dimensional coordinates of all the atoms in a molecule and is an important task in bioinformatics and pharmacology. Previous methods usually first predict the interatomic distances, the gradients of interatomic distances or the local structures (e.g., torsion angles) of a molecule, and then reconstruct its 3D conformation. How to directly generate the conformation without the above intermediate values is not fully explored. In this work, we propose a method that directly predicts the coordinates of atoms: (1) the loss function is invariant to roto-translation of coordinates and permutation of symmetric atoms; (2) the newly proposed model adaptively aggregates the bond and atom information and iteratively refines the coordinates of the generated conformation. Our method achieves the best results on GEOM-QM9 and GEOM-Drugs datasets. Further analysis shows that our generated conformations have closer properties (e.g., HOMO-LUMO gap) with the groundtruth conformations. In addition, our method improves molecular docking by providing better initial conformations. All the results demonstrate the effectiveness of our method and the great potential of the direct approach. The code is released at https://github.com/DirectMolecularConfGen/DMCG

In molecular research, simulation \& design of molecules are key areas with significant implications for drug development, material science, and other fields. Current classical computational power falls inadequate to simulate any more than small molecules, let alone protein chains on hundreds of peptide. Therefore these experiment are done physically in wet-lab, but it takes a lot of time \& not possible to examine every molecule due to the size of the search area, tens of billions of dollars are spent every year in these research experiments. Molecule simulation \& design has lately advanced significantly by machine learning models, A fresh perspective on the issue of chemical synthesis is provided by deep generative models for graph-structured data. By optimising differentiable models that produce molecular graphs directly, it is feasible to avoid costly search techniques in the discrete and huge space of chemical structures. But these models also suffer from computational limitations when dimensions become huge and consume huge amount of resources. Quantum Generative machine learning in recent years have shown some empirical results promising significant advantages over classical counterparts.

We seek to automate the design of molecules based on specific chemical properties. In computational terms, this task involves continuous embedding and generation of molecular graphs. Our primary contribution is the direct realization of molecular graphs, a task previously approached by generating linear SMILES strings instead of graphs. Our junction tree variational autoencoder generates molecular graphs in two phases, by first generating a tree-structured scaffold over chemical substructures, and then combining them into a molecule with a graph message passing network. This approach allows us to incrementally expand molecules while maintaining chemical validity at every step. We evaluate our model on multiple tasks ranging from molecular generation to optimization. Across these tasks, our model outperforms previous state-of-the-art baselines by a significant margin.

There is increasing adoption of artificial intelligence in drug discovery. However, existing works use machine learning to mainly utilize the chemical structures of molecules yet ignore the vast textual knowledge available in chemistry. Incorporating textual knowledge enables us to realize new drug design objectives, adapt to text-based instructions, and predict complex biological activities. We present a multi-modal molecule structure-text model, MoleculeSTM, by jointly learning molecule's chemical structures and textual descriptions via a contrastive learning strategy. To train MoleculeSTM, we construct the largest multi-modal dataset to date, namely PubChemSTM, with over 280K chemical structure-text pairs. To demonstrate the effectiveness and utility of MoleculeSTM, we design two challenging zero-shot tasks based on text instructions, including structure-text retrieval and molecule editing. MoleculeSTM possesses two main properties: open vocabulary and compositionality via natural language. In experiments, MoleculeSTM obtains the state-of-the-art generalization ability to novel biochemical concepts across various benchmarks.

有效地发现满足各种性能要求的分子可以显着受益药物发现行业。由于搜索整个化学空间是不可行的,因此最近的作品采用了用于目标定向分子产生的生成模型。它们倾向于利用迭代过程,优化每次迭代时的分子发生模型的参数,以产生有望的分子以进一步验证。利用评估来评估每次迭代的产生的分子,为模型优化提供方向。然而,最先前的作品需要大量的昂贵且耗时的评估,例如湿法实验和分子动态模拟,导致缺乏实用性。为了减少迭代过程中的评估,我们提出了一种在潜在空间中的成本效益的演化策略,其优化了分子潜在载波。我们采用预先训练的分子生成模型来映射潜伏和观察空间,利用大规模未标记的分子来学习化学知识。为了进一步减少昂贵的评估数量,我们将一个筛选器预先介绍为评估的代理。我们对多种优化任务进行了广泛的实验,将建议的框架与几种先进技术进行比较,表明所提出的框架更好地实现了更好的评估。

Structure-based drug design (SBDD) aims to discover drug candidates by finding molecules (ligands) that bind tightly to a disease-related protein (targets), which is the primary approach to computer-aided drug discovery. Recently, applying deep generative models for three-dimensional (3D) molecular design conditioned on protein pockets to solve SBDD has attracted much attention, but their formulation as probabilistic modeling often leads to unsatisfactory optimization performance. On the other hand, traditional combinatorial optimization methods such as genetic algorithms (GA) have demonstrated state-of-the-art performance in various molecular optimization tasks. However, they do not utilize protein target structure to inform design steps but rely on a random-walk-like exploration, which leads to unstable performance and no knowledge transfer between different tasks despite the similar binding physics. To achieve a more stable and efficient SBDD, we propose Reinforced Genetic Algorithm (RGA) that uses neural models to prioritize the profitable design steps and suppress random-walk behavior. The neural models take the 3D structure of the targets and ligands as inputs and are pre-trained using native complex structures to utilize the knowledge of the shared binding physics from different targets and then fine-tuned during optimization. We conduct thorough empirical studies on optimizing binding affinity to various disease targets and show that RGA outperforms the baselines in terms of docking scores and is more robust to random initializations. The ablation study also indicates that the training on different targets helps improve performance by leveraging the shared underlying physics of the binding processes. The code is available at https://github.com/futianfan/reinforced-genetic-algorithm.
