- Abstract summary: We formulate DiffSBDD as a 3D-conditional generation problem for structure-based drug design (SBDD)
Comprehensive in silico experiments demonstrate the efficiency and effectiveness of DiffSBDD in generating novel and diverse drug-like with competitive docking.
We further explore the flexibility of diffusion framework for a broader range of tasks in drug design campaigns, such as off-the-shelf property optimization and partial molecular design with inpainting.

- Abstract: Structure-based drug design (SBDD) aims to design small-molecule ligands that
bind with high affinity and specificity to pre-determined protein targets. In
this paper, we formulate SBDD as a 3D-conditional generation problem and
present DiffSBDD, an SE(3)-equivariant 3D-conditional diffusion model that
generates novel ligands conditioned on protein pockets. Comprehensive in silico
experiments demonstrate the efficiency and effectiveness of DiffSBDD in
generating novel and diverse drug-like ligands with competitive docking scores.
We further explore the flexibility of the diffusion framework for a broader
range of tasks in drug design campaigns, such as off-the-shelf property
optimization and partial molecular design with inpainting.

We propose a novel and general alignment framework to align pretrained target diffusion models with preferred functional properties, named AliDiff.
AliDiff shifts the target-conditioned chemical distribution towards regions with higher binding affinity and structural rationality, specified by user-defined reward functions.
We show that AliDiff can generate molecules with state-of-the-art binding energies with up to -7.07 Avg. Vina Score, while maintaining strong molecular properties.

We decouple the problem into molecular generation and property prediction.
The latter synergistically guides the diffusion sampling process, facilitating guided diffusion and resulting in the creation of meaningful molecules with the desired properties.
We call this guided molecular generation process as TAGMol.

The inclusion of 3D structures during targeted drug design shows superior performance to other target-free models.
We develop a 3D equivariant diffusion model to solve the above challenges.
Our model could generate molecules with more realistic 3D structures and better affinities towards the protein targets, and improve binding affinity ranking and prediction without retraining.
