medchem 是做什麼的?

概述

Medchem 是一個來自 datamol-io 的 Python 函式庫,用於藥物發現中的分子過濾與優先排序。可應用文獻中衍生的藥物相似性規則、命名警報目錄、複雜度閾值、化學基團檢測以及自訂查詢語言,對化合物庫進行大規模三級篩選。過濾器是基於情境的指南——應與領域專業知識和目標知識結合使用。

版本注意: 範例目標 medchem 2.0.5(PyPI 穩定版,2024 年 11 月)。需要 Python ≥3.9。依賴於 datamol 和 RDKit(自動安裝)。RuleFilters 和結構過濾器類別返回 pandas DataFrames。Lilly demerits 需要選裝的原生二進位檔案(mamba install lilly-medchem-rules)。

何時使用此技能

應在以下情況使用此技能:

  • 將藥物相似性規則(Lipinski、Veber、CNS、lead-like)應用於化合物庫
  • 根據結構警報、PAINS 或 NIBR 篩選庫規則過濾分子
  • 為 hit-to-lead 或先導化合物最佳化優先排序化合物
  • 根據 ZINC 衍生的閾值計算複雜度指標
  • 檢測官能基團或命名的子結構目錄
  • 使用藥物化學查詢語言建立多條件過濾器

安裝

uv pip install medchem datamol

可選——Eli Lilly demerit 過濾器(需要 conda-forge 原生二進位):

mamba install -c conda-forge lilly-medchem-rules

核心功能

1. 藥物化學規則

透過 medchem.rules 應用已建立的藥物相似性規則。

列出可用規則:

import medchem as mc

mc.rules.RuleFilters.list_available_rules_names()
# ['rule_of_five', 'rule_of_five_beyond', 'rule_of_four', 'rule_of_three', ...]

對單一分子應用單一規則:

import datamol as dm
import medchem as mc

smiles = "CC(=O)OC1=CC=CC=C1C(=O)O"  # 阿斯匹靈
mc.rules.basic_rules.rule_of_five(smiles)   # True
mc.rules.basic_rules.rule_of_cns(smiles)    # True
mc.rules.basic_rules.rule_of_veber(smiles)  # True

使用 RuleFilters 應用多個規則(返回 DataFrame):

import datamol as dm
import medchem as mc

mols = [dm.to_mol(s) for s in smiles_list]

rfilter = mc.rules.RuleFilters(
    rule_list=["rule_of_five", "rule_of_oprea", "rule_of_cns", "rule_of_leadlike_soft"]
)
df = rfilter(mols=mols, n_jobs=-1, progress=True, keep_props=False)

# 列:mol, pass_all, pass_any, rule_of_five, rule_of_oprea, ...
passing = df[df["pass_all"]]

使用 keep_props=True 在結果中包含計算的描述符(mw、clogp、tpsa 等)。

2. 結構警報過濾器

使用 medchem.structural 檢測有問題的模式。兩個類別都返回包含 pass_filter、status 和 reasons 列的 DataFrames。

常見警報(ChEMBL 衍生的規則集):

import medchem as mc

alert_filter = mc.structural.CommonAlertsFilters()
df = alert_filter(mols=mol_list, n_jobs=-1, progress=True)
# df 列:mol, pass_filter, status, reasons

clean = df[df["pass_filter"]]

NIBR 過濾器(諾華篩選庫策展):

nibr_filter = mc.structural.NIBRFilters()
df = nibr_filter(mols=mol_list, n_jobs=-1, progress=True)
# df 列:mol, pass_filter, status, severity, reasons, n_covalent_motif, special_mol

預設排除 severity >= 10 的化合物(參見 NIBR 論文)。

3. 命名目錄過濾器(PAINS、Brenk 等)

使用 medchem.catalogs.NamedCatalogs 取得 RDKit FilterCatalog 實例,或使用函數式 API:

import medchem as mc

# 列出可用的命名目錄
mc.catalogs.list_named_catalogs()
# ['tox', 'pains', 'pains_a', 'brenk', 'nibr', 'zinc', ...]

# 函數式 API — True 表示分子通過(無警報匹配)
passes = mc.functional.alert_filter(mols=mol_list, alerts=["pains"], n_jobs=-1)

# 或透過目錄物件
passes = mc.functional.catalog_filter(
    mols=mol_list,
    catalogs=[mc.catalogs.NamedCatalogs.pains()],
    n_jobs=-1,
)

4. 函數式 API

medchem.functional 提供一次性呼叫的包裝器,返回布林遮罩(True = 通過):

import medchem as mc

mc.functional.rules_filter(mols=mol_list, rules=["rule_of_five", "rule_of_cns"], n_jobs=-1)
mc.functional.nibr_filter(mols=mol_list, max_severity=10, n_jobs=-1)
mc.functional.alert_filter(mols=mol_list, alerts=["pains", "brenk"], n_jobs=-1)
mc.functional.complexity_filter(mols=mol_list, complexity_metric="bertz", limit="99", n_jobs=-1)

其他輔助函數:catalog_filter、chemical_group_filter、lilly_demerit_filter(需要選裝二進位)、macrocycle_filter、bredt_filter、protecting_groups_filter 等。

5. 化學基團

透過 medchem.groups 檢測官能基團和策劃的模式集合:

import medchem as mc

# 瀏覽可用的基團集合
mc.groups.list_default_chemical_groups()
# ['privileged_scaffolds', 'common_warhead_covalent_inhibitors', 'rings_in_drugs', ...]

group = mc.groups.ChemicalGroup(groups=["privileged_scaffolds"])
group.has_match(mol)                          # 布林值
group.get_matches(mol)                        # 字典:基團 → 原子索引
group.filter(mols)                            # 匹配該基團的分子

# 返回不匹配該基團的分子
mc.functional.chemical_group_filter(mols=mol_list, chemical_group=group, n_jobs=-1)

自訂基團可以透過 groups_db 從檔案載入(CSV,包含 smiles/smarts、name、group 列)。

6. 分子複雜度

將複雜度指標與預先計算的 ZINC-15 百分位閾值進行比較:

import medchem as mc

# 單一分子
cf = mc.complexity.ComplexityFilter(limit="99", complexity_metric="bertz")
cf(mol)  # 若低於第 99 百分位閾值則為 True

# 透過函數式 API 批次處理
mc.functional.complexity_filter(
    mols=mol_list,
    complexity_metric="bertz",  # 亦支援:sas, qed, whitlock, barone, smcm, twc
    limit="99",
    n_jobs=-1,
)

# 直接指標函數
mc.complexity.WhitlockCT(mol)
mc.complexity.BaroneCT(mol)

7. 骨架約束

medchem.constraints.Constraints 匹配核心骨架並對每個原子應用約束函數——這並非簡單的 MW/LogP 範圍。如需屬性邊界,請使用 RuleFilters、透過 mc.rules.list_descriptors() 取得的描述符,或查詢語言。

import datamol as dm
import medchem as mc

core = dm.to_mol("c1ccccc1")
constraints = mc.constraints.Constraints(
    core=core,
    constraint_fns={"query": lambda mol, atom_idx, query: ...},
)
constraints(mol)

8. 藥物化學查詢語言

使用 medchem.query.QueryFilter 建立多條件過濾器:

import medchem as mc

# 規則 + 警報組合
qf = mc.query.QueryFilter('MATCHRULE("rule_of_five") AND NOT HASALERT("pains")')
mask = qf(mols=mol_list, n_jobs=-1)  # list[bool]

# CNS 類似物 + 屬性邊界
qf = mc.query.QueryFilter('MATCHRULE("rule_of_cns") AND HASPROP("tpsa", <=, 90)')
mask = qf(mols=mol_list, n_jobs=-1)

查詢語法:

  • MATCHRULE("rule_of_five") — 應用命名規則
  • HASALERT("pains") — 匹配命名目錄(pains、brenk、nibr、tox 等)
  • HASPROP("mw", <, 500) — 比較描述符(比較運算子不加引號)
  • HASGROUP("privileged_scaffolds") — 匹配化學基團
  • HASSUBSTRUCTURE("c1ccccc1") — 子結構匹配
  • 運算子:AND、OR、NOT

列出可用描述符:mc.rules.list_descriptors()

工作流程模式

模式 1:化合物庫的初始三級篩選

import datamol as dm
import medchem as mc
import pandas as pd

df = pd.read_csv("compounds.csv")
mols = [dm.to_mol(s) for s in df["smiles"]]

# 藥物相似性規則
rules_df = mc.rules.RuleFilters(rule_list=["rule_of_five", "rule_of_veber"])(mols=mols, n_jobs=-1)

# 透過查詢進行 PAINS + 常見警報
qf = mc.query.QueryFilter('MATCHRULE("rule_of_five") AND NOT HASALERT("pains")')
pass_mask = qf(mols=mols, n_jobs=-1)

df["passes_rules"] = rules_df["pass_all"].values
df["drug_like"] = pass_mask
filtered_df = df[df["drug_like"]]
filtered_df.to_csv("filtered_compounds.csv", index=False)

模式 2:先導化合物最佳化過濾

import medchem as mc

rules_df = mc.rules.RuleFilters(rule_list=["rule_of_leadlike_soft"])(mols=candidates, n_jobs=-1)
nibr_df = mc.structural.NIBRFilters()(mols=candidates, n_jobs=-1)
complex_mask = mc.functional.complexity_filter(
    mols=candidates, complexity_metric="bertz", limit="95", n_jobs=-1
)

passes = (
    rules_df["pass_all"]
    & nibr_df["pass_filter"]
    & complex_mask
)

模式 3:檢測官能基團

import medchem as mc

group = mc.groups.ChemicalGroup(groups=["common_warhead_covalent_inhibitors"])
matches = [group.has_match(mol) for mol in mol_list]
warhead_mols = [mol for mol, m in zip(mol_list, matches) if m]

最佳實踐

  1. 情境很重要 — 市售藥物經常違反 RO5;前藥和天然產物是常見的例外。
  2. 組合過濾器 — 規則、警報目錄和複雜度閾值最好一起使用。
  3. 使用平行化 — 對於超過 1000 個分子的庫,傳入 n_jobs=-1。
  4. 檢查返回類型 — RuleFilters 和結構類別返回 DataFrames;函數式輔助函數返回布林陣列。
  5. Lilly demerits 為可選 — 單獨安裝 lilly-medchem-rules;函數式 API 中的預設最大 demerits 為 160。
  6. 記錄決策 — 保留 status、reasons 和 severity 列以供審計追蹤。
