Cheminformatic Identification of Tyrosyl-DNA Phosphodiesterase 1 (Tdp1) Inhibitors: A Comparative Study of SMILES-Based Supervised Machine Learning Models.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (Tdp1) repairs damages in DNA induced by abortive topoisomerase 1 activity; however, maintenance of genetic integrity may sustain cellular division of neoplastic cells. It follows that Tdp1-targeting chemical inhibitors could synergize well with existing chemotherapy drugs to deny cancer growth; therefore, identification of Tdp1 inhibitors may advance precision medicine in oncology.

Objective

Current computational research efforts focus primarily on molecular docking simulations, though datasets involving three-dimensional molecular structures are often hard to curate and computationally expensive to store and process. We propose the use of simplified molecular input line entry system (SMILES) chemical representations to train super
