We introduce here ML4Tox, a framework offering Deep Learning and Support Vector Machine models to predict agonist, antagonist, and binding activities of chemical compounds, in this case for the estrogen receptor ligand-binding domain. The ML4Tox models have been developed with a 10 × 5-fold cross-validation schema on the training portion of the CERAPP ToxCast dataset, formed by 1677 chemicals, each described by 777 molecular features. On the CERAPP "All Literature" evaluation set (agonist: 6319 compounds; antagonist 6539; binding 7283), ML4Tox significantly improved sensitivity over published results on all three tasks, with agonist: 0.78 vs 0.56; antagonist: 0.69 vs 0.11; binding: 0.66 vs 0.26.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D011485 Protein Binding The process in which substances, either endogenous or exogenous, bind to proteins, peptides, enzymes, protein precursors, or allied compounds. Specific protein-binding measures are often used as assays in diagnostic assessments. Plasma Protein Binding Capacity,Binding, Protein

D052244 Endocrine Disruptors Exogenous agents, synthetic and naturally occurring, which are capable of disrupting the functions of the ENDOCRINE SYSTEM including the maintenance of HOMEOSTASIS and the regulation of developmental processes. Endocrine disruptors are compounds that can mimic HORMONES, or enhance or block the binding of hormones to their receptors, or otherwise lead to activating or inhibiting the endocrine signaling pathways and hormone metabolism.
