    Abstract:
    State‑of‑the‑art medical studies proved that predicting CYP450 enzyme inhibitors is beneficial in the early stage of drug discovery. However, accurate machine learning-based (ML) in silico methods for predicting CYP450 inhibitors remains challenging. Here, we introduce GTransCYPs, an improved graph neural network (GNN) with a transformer mechanism for predicting CYP450 inhibitors. This model significantly enhances the discrimination between inhibitors and non-inhibitors for five major CYP450 isozymes: 1A2, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, and 3A4. GTransCYPs learns information patterns from molecular graphs by aggregating node and edge representations using a transformer. The GTransCYPs model utilizes transformer convolution layers to process features, followed by a global attention-pooling technique to synthesize the graph-level information. This information is then fed through successive linear layers for final output generation. Experimental results demonstrate that the GTransCYPs model achieved high performance, outperforming other state-of-the-art methods in CYP450 prediction.Scientific contributionThe prediction of CYP450 inhibition via computational techniques utilizing biological information has emerged as a cost-effective and highly efficient approach. Here, we presented a deep learning (DL) architecture based on GNN with transformer mechanism and attention pooling (GTransCYPs) to predict CYP450 inhibitors. Four GTransCYPs of different pooling technique were tested on an experimental tasks on the CYP450 prediction problem for the first time. Graph transformer with attention pooling algorithm achieved the best performances. Comparative and ablation experiments provide evidence of the efficacy of our proposed method in predicting CYP450 inhibitors.
