Machine Learning-Augmented Docking. 1. CYP inhibition prediction
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A significant portion of the oxidative metabolism carried out by the human body is accomplished by six Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes. The binding of small molecules to these enzymes affects drug activity and half-life. Additionally, the inhibition or induction of a CYP isoform by a drug can lead to drug-drug interactions, which in turn can lead to toxicity. In order to predict CYP inhibition, a variety of computational methods have been used, with docking methods being less accurate than machine learning (ML) methods. However, the latter learning methods are sensitive to training data and show reduced accuracy on test sets outside of the chemical space of the training set. In contrast, docking methods do not have this generalization issue and allow for visual analysis. We hypothesize that combining ML methods with docking can lead to improved results when predicting CYP inhibition. To test this hypothesis, we pair our in-house docking program FITTED with several ML techniques to investigate the accuracy and transferability of this hybrid methodology, which we term ML-augmented docking. We find that ML-augmented docking can significantly improve the accuracy of docking software while showing that using ligand features only provides similar accuracy. The generalisability of our docking and ligand-only ML models shows that the ML-augmented docking is modestly more generalizable than ligand machine learning.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
