Adaptation of the REINVENT neural network architecture to generate potential HIV-1 entry inhibitors by D. A. Varabyeu, A. D. Karpenko, A. V. Tuzikov, A. M. Andrianov

“…To accelerate the learning of the neural network in the modified version of the REINVENT model, the AutoDock-Vina-GPU-2.1 docking program was used, and to clarify the results of its work, the procedure for revaluing the affinity of compounds to the target using the RFScore-4 evaluation function was used.Results. Using a modified version of the REINVENT model, more than 60,000 compounds were obtained, of which about 52,000 molecules have a binding energy value to the HIV-1 gp120 protein comparable to the value calculated for the HIV-1 inhibitor NBD-14204, used in calculations as a positive control. …”
