This study presents ECloudGen, which uses latent diffusion to generate electron clouds from protein pockets and decodes them into molecules, and adopts two-stage training, which expands the chemical space accessible to generative drug design.
Abstract Cyclic peptides represent a highly promising class of biopharmaceutical scaffolds. The screening of cyclic peptides against protein targets can be greatly facilitated using computational approaches, especially molecular docking. However, it remains a crucial challenge to accurately predict protein–cyclic pepti...

Jennifer Neville did not want to go into computer science—but that’s exactly where she landed. Neville discusses the starts and stops that led to her professional sweet spot and her work identifying “surprising failures” making it hard for AI to handle complexity. The post What AI gets wrong and what failure teaches us appeared first on Microsoft Research.
