Abstract in brief

  • PocketMiner is a graph neural network designed to quickly and accurately predict cryptic pockets in proteins, which are hidden sites that can be targeted for drug discovery but are hard to detect.
  • It was tested on a new dataset of confirmed cryptic pockets and shown to identify these pockets with high accuracy (ROCAUC of 0.87) and much faster than previous methods.
  • When applied to the entire human proteome, PocketMiner suggests that many proteins previously thought to lack druggable pockets may actually contain hidden cryptic pockets, significantly expanding the potential targets for drug development.
