“Bayes Affinity Fingerprints” Improve Retrieval Rates in Virtual Screening and Define Orthogonal Bioactivity Space: When Are Multitarget Drugs a Feasible Concept?

Conventional similarity searching of molecules compares single (or multiple) active query structures to each other in a relative framework, by means of a structural descriptor and a similarity measure. While this often works well, depending on the target, we show here that retrieval rates can be …
