TL;DR

The Comprehensive VS Platform with AI Engine (CVSP-AIE) for drug discovery from compound libraries integrates three AI models: KarmaDock, a fast docking model that directly updates atomic coordinates; CarsiDock, an accurate docking model that predicts protein-ligand distances and reconstructs binding poses; and RTMScore, an accurate scoring model that learns residue-atom distance distributions for affinity prediction.

SurroDock: A Deep Learning Surrogate for Accelerated Pre-Docking Ligand Prioritization in Structure-Based Virtual Screening

Results indicate that 2D-based docking-score surrogate modeling can provide a reproducible and retrainable strategy for large-scale structure-based virtual screening by concentrating docking resources on a smaller, enriched subset of compounds.
