   PhenoModel is a cutting-edge molecular representation foundation model that integrates cell phenotype data to enhance the characterization of molecules. By leveraging the rich information embedded in cell images, PhenoModel significantly improves performance in various drug discovery tasks, particularly in virtual screening. Based on PhenoModel, we developed an active compound screening pipeline called PhenoScreen to further screen other molecules with similar activities but novel scaffolds according to the known active compounds.

   Journal of Cheminformatics, 2023

   Abs DOI Bib HTML PDF

   

   DeepSA is proposed to predict synthesis accessibility of compounds, and has a much higher early enrichment rate in discriminating molecules that are difficult to synthesize. This helps users to select less expensive molecules for synthesis, thus reducing the time for drug discovery and development. You can use DeepSA on a webserver at https://bailab.siais.shanghaitech.edu.cn/deepsa
