Abstract
Although being able to determine whether a host molecule can enclose a guest molecule and form a caging complex could benefit numerous chemical and medical applications, the experimental discovery of molecular caging complexes has not yet been achieved at scale. Here, we propose MoleQCage, a simple tool for the high-throughput screening of host and guest candidates based on an efficient robotics-inspired geometric algorithm for molecular caging prediction, providing theoretical guarantees and robustness assessment. MoleQCage is distributed as Linux-based software with a graphical user interface and is available online at https://hub.docker.com/r/dantrigne/moleqcage in the form of a Docker container. Documentation and examples are available as Supporting Information and online at https://hub.docker.com/r/dantrigne/moleqcage.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Chemical Information and Modeling publishes papers reporting new methodology and/or important applications in the fields of chemical informatics and molecular modeling. Specific topics include the representation and computer-based searching of chemical databases, molecular modeling, computer-aided molecular design of new materials, catalysts, or ligands, development of new computational methods or efficient algorithms for chemical software, and biopharmaceutical chemistry including analyses of biological activity and other issues related to drug discovery.
Astute chemists, computer scientists, and information specialists look to this monthly’s insightful research studies, programming innovations, and software reviews to keep current with advances in this integral, multidisciplinary field.
As a subscriber you’ll stay abreast of database search systems, use of graph theory in chemical problems, substructure search systems, pattern recognition and clustering, analysis of chemical and physical data, molecular modeling, graphics and natural language interfaces, bibliometric and citation analysis, and synthesis design and reactions databases.
