Abstract Designing efficient synthetic routes for a target molecule remains major challenge in organic synthesis. Atom environments are ideal, stand-alone, chemically meaningful building blocks providing high-resolution molecular representation. Our approach mimics chemical reasoning, and predicts reactant candidates by learning the changes of atom associated with reaction. Through careful inspection candidates, we demonstrate as promising descriptors studying reaction route prediction...

Structure-based virtual screening (SBVS) is a crucial computational approach in drug discovery, but its performance sensitive to structural variations. Kinases, which are major targets, exemplify this challenge due active site conformational changes caused by different inhibitor types. Most experimentally determined kinase structures have the DFGin state, potentially biasing SBVS towards type I inhibitors and limiting discovery of diverse scaffolds.
