Reactivity-guided covalent natural-product screening workflow

2026Open accessLead City University

Abstract

Reproducible in silico workflow for prioritizing covalent natural-product candidates: Michael-acceptor filtering, dual covalent docking, MM-GBSA, and a multi-descriptor DFT reactivity analysis, demonstrated against falcipain-2 and falcipain-3. Adds executed validation analyses: retrospective FP-2 enrichment benchmark (with bootstrap CIs and a warhead-matched control), pH 5.5 vs 7.0 sensitivity, OPT1 covalent cascade, and DFT descriptor-robustness (Fukui population schemes; ωB97X-D/6-311++G** reaction energies). Open-source benchmark code and deposited results added.
