Geometry-Informed Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning of Pre-trained Molecular GNNs for Blood-Brain Barrier Permeability Prediction

arXiv:2608. 04257v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Blood-brain barrier permeability (BBBP) prediction is a critical screening task in central nervous system drug discovery, where candidate molecules must be assessed for whether they can cross, or should be prevented from crossing, the blood-brain barrier.

Beyond SBDD: Geometric Deep Learning in Polypharmacology and Multi-target Drug Design

arXiv:2607. 20550v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The traditional "one drug, one target" paradigm of structure-based drug design (SBDD) frequently proves inadequate for treating multifactorial diseases such as cancer and neurodegenerative disorders, owing to compensatory signaling pathways and the emergence of drug resistance.

An Additive MLP-GNN Framework for Characterizing Chemical and Structural Contributions to Aqueous Solubility

arXiv:2607. 02212v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Aqueous solubility is a key property in early-stage drug discovery, but most predictive models merge physicochemical descriptors and molecular graph information into a single representation, obscuring whether a prediction is driven by global chemistry, molecular structure, or both.

Protein Representation Learning with Secondary-Structure and Energy-Filtered Hydrogen-Bond Graphs

arXiv:2606. 19374v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Graph-based representations are widely used in protein modeling, yet many existing approaches rely primarily on sequence adjacency or geometric proximity, which only partially reflect the principles governing protein folding.
