识别细胞色素P450酶代谢小分子药物的位点对新药研发至关重要。现有计算方法通常忽略酶亚型差异或独立建模各亚型,难以捕捉跨亚型的代谢规律。此外,以往评估多依赖top-k指标,易将非真实代谢原子纳入预测,亟需更直接衡量原子级二分类性能的指标。本文提出ATTNSOM,一种原子级代谢位点预测框架,融合分子固有反应性与跨亚型关系。模型结合共享图编码器、分子条件化原子表示和交叉注意力机制,捕捉不同细胞色素P450亚型间的相关代谢模式。在两个标注了原子级代谢位点的基准数据集上评估,模型在多个亚型上均表现出一致的强top-k性能。相比消融版本,其Matthews相关系数更高,表明对真实代谢位点的判别能力更强。结果验证了显式建模跨亚型关系对代谢位点预测的重要性。代码与数据集见https://github.com/dmis-lab/ATTNSOM。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Identifying metabolic sites where cytochrome P450 enzymes metabolize small-molecule drugs is essential for drug discovery. Although existing computational approaches have been proposed for site-of-metabolism prediction, they typically ignore cytochrome P450 isoform identity or model isoforms independently, thereby failing to fully capture inherent cross-isoform metabolic patterns. In addition, prior evaluations often rely on top-k metrics, where false positive atoms may be included among the top predictions, underscoring the need for complementary metrics that more directly assess binary atom-level discrimination under severe class imbalance. We propose ATTNSOM, an atom-level site-of-metabolism prediction framework that integrates intrinsic molecular reactivity with cross-isoform relationships. The model combines a shared graph encoder, molecule-conditioned atom representations, and a cross-attention mechanism to capture correlated metabolic patterns across cytochrome P450 isoforms. The model is evaluated on two benchmark datasets annotated with site-of-metabolism labels at atom resolution. Across these benchmarks, the model achieves consistently strong top-k performance across multiple cytochrome P450 isoforms. Relative to ablated variants, the model yields higher Matthews correlation coefficient, indicating improved discrimination of true metabolic sites. These results support the importance of explicitly modeling cross-isoform relationships for site-of-metabolism prediction. The code and datasets are available at https://github.com/dmis-lab/ATTNSOM.
