Introducing Medchem, an open source Python library for molecular filtering and prioritization.
It includes hundreds of molecular filters, alerts, and rules, both established and novel.
Read the blog by @HadiM_ for more details: portal.valencelabs.com/blogs…
Spotted some molfeat users at the @Polaris_HQ hackathon 👀
They're searching for quick and easy ways to test different molecular featurizers.

Today, we are excited to introduce Graphium into the datamol.io ecosystem!
Graphium is a powerful and flexible Python library for training molecular GNNs at scale.🚀♾️
Try it out today: github.com/datamol-io/graphi…
1/ Can ChatGPT generate molecular featurizers? Do we need to finetune LLMs on molecular context to get good molecular representations? 🤔
We tried this with the molfeat-hype extension using embeddings provided by various LLMs 👇
There are waaay too many molecular featurizers out there - here’s a breakdown by category of what’s available on molfeat.
We suggest trying out the pre-trained models first! 🧠 Which featurizer does the community want to see next in molfeat?
Let us know👇
molfeat makes it easy for ML scientists working in drug discovery to evaluate and implement a wide range of featurizers, see what’s available here: molfeat.datamol.io/featurize…

1/ Shoutout to datamol contributor Desmond Gilmour for introducing lasso highlighting! 🪢
This new feature enhances the visualization process on datamol, allowing users to quickly identify and visualize specific parts or features of a molecule.
Try now: dev.to/dessygil/lasso-highli…
Transforming units, adding molecules and descriptors to Pandas dataframes, clustering, and filtering based on descriptor values. 🧪
Learn about how datamol can help you accomplish these tasks and a lot more in this awesome tutorial by @wpwalters!
A new Practical Cheminformatics tutorial highlights some of the features in the datamol package that simplify cheminformatics workflows. “Streamlining Cheminformatics Workflows with datamol 1. Data manipulation, descriptors, and clustering”.

0/ 🧩 We’ve added support for PaDEL descriptors to molfeat!
The first molfeat plugin now supports the PaDEL molecule featurizers which have a total of 797 descriptors and 10 types of fingerprints. 🤯
Get started here: github.com/datamol-io/molfea…
Super exciting to see this from @wpwalters, we’re looking forward to future posts! 🚀
Replying to @dom_beaini @datamol_io
There will be more tutorials involving datamol and molfeat soon. These libraries are awesome!

In the past few threads, we’ve talked about how important structure-activity relationships (SAR) are for drug discovery.
Efficiently aligning the molecules in your dataset can make it easier to visualize and highlight substructures that are relevant to activity. 🧵(1/5)
Aligning molecules can also help visualize shared structures between compounds and identify potential activity patterns through activity cliffs. 🧵(2/5)

In Datamol, “fuzzy scaffolding” is a useful concept for constrained scaffold generation.
This feature enables finer control over the types of scaffolds you can generate as you can enforce specific groups to appear in the molecular core. 🧵(1/5)
Enforcing specific groups in the core also acts as a pharmacophore requirement.
Pharmacophores are defined as “a part of a molecular structure that is responsible for a particular biological or pharmacological interaction that it undergoes”. 🧵(2/5)

Scaffolds are best defined as molecular “cores” of a compound where you have functional groups attached via attachment points.
By identifying these core structures, we can leverage the structure-activity-relationship (SAR) of compounds to design new and better drugs. 🧵(1/9)
Although there are technically many definitions for a scaffold, the most common one is the Bemis-Murcko scaffold. 🧵(2/9)

What are some of the strategies that we can use to develop effective therapeutic agents?
One approach is using fragments as building blocks. These are small molecules with low molecular weights, often representing a small part of a bigger, drug-like compound. 🧵(1/11)
Fragments are useful as starting points in a medicinal chemistry campaign. They are used to identify small chemical and functional groups that bind, even if weakly, to the target of interest. 🧵(2/11)

Thank you to @iwatobipen for writing a blog on how easy it is to use Datamol! He’s written countless cheminformatics blog posts which I’m sure many of us have read at some point when looking for an RDKit feature/tutorial.
