Abstract The structural diversity of chemical libraries, which are systematic collections of compounds that have potential to bind to biomolecules, can be represented by chemical latent space. A chemical latent space is a projection of a compound structure into a mathematical space based on several molecular features, and it can express structural diversity within a compound library in order to explore a broader chemical space and generate novel compound structures for drug candidates. In this study, we developed a deep-learning method, called NP-VAE (Natural Product-oriented Variational Autoencoder), based on variational autoencoder for managing hard-to-analyze datasets from DrugBank and large molecular structures such as natural compounds with chirality, an essential factor in the 3D complexity of compounds. NP-VAE was successful in constructing the chemical latent space from large-sized compounds that were unable to be handled in existing methods, achieving higher reconstruction accuracy, and demonstrating stable performance as a generative model across various indices. Furthermore, by exploring the acquired latent space, we succeeded in comprehensively analyzing a compound library containing natural compounds and generating novel compound structures with optimized functions. |
