Drug discovery and mechanism prediction with explainable graph neural networks by Conghao Wang, Gaurav Asok Kumar, Jagath C. Rajapakse

“…However, existing methods mainly focus on forward encoding of drugs, which is to obtain an accurate prediction of the response levels, but omitted to decipher the reaction mechanism between drug molecules and genes. We propose the eXplainable Graph-based Drug response Prediction (XGDP) approach that achieves a precise drug response prediction and reveals the comprehensive mechanism of action between drugs and their targets. …”

Contribution of NMR spectroscopy to the mechanistic understanding of photochromism by S. Delbaere, J. C. Micheau, J. Berthet, G. Vermeersch

“…The kinetics of thermal back reaction are monitored by directly and separately measuring the concentrations of each long-living species at regular time intervals in NMR spectra. A plausible reaction mechanism can therefore be proposed. Based on this mechanism, the kinetic analysis and the study of the effects of temperature lead to the determination of the kinetic and thermodynamic parameters (rate coefficients, enthalpy and entropy of activation) of the photochromic system under investigation. …”
