This comprehensive review delves into the realm of GenAI for drug design, emphasizing recent advancements and methodologies that have propelled the field forward. Specifically, we focus on three prominent paradigms: transformers, diffusion models, and reinforcement learning algorithms, which have been exceptionally impactful in the last few years. By synthesizing insights from a myriad of studies and developments, we elucidate the potential of these approaches in accelerating the drug discovery process.

New crops could thus be rapidly created that are well adapted to cope with drought, flooding, soil salinity, or insect damage. <em>De novo</em> domestication avoids the complexity of transferring polygenic stress resistance from wild species to crops. Instead, new crops can be created by manipulating major genes in stress-resistant wild species. However, the genetic basis of certain relevant domestication-related traits often involve epistasis and pleiotropy. Furthermore, pan-genome analyses show that structural variation driving gene expression changes has been selected during domestication. A growing body of work suggests that the Solanaceae family, which includes crop species such as tomatoes, potatoes, eggplants, peppers, and tobacco, is a suitable model group to dissect these phenomena and operate changes in wild relatives to improve agronomic traits rapidly with GE. We briefly discuss the prospects of this exciting novel field in the interface between fundamental and applied plant biology and its potential impact in the coming years.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":10833,"journal":{"name":"Current opinion in biotechnology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":7.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141897022","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Challenges include an incomplete understanding of GPCR signaling, pharmacology, structural biology, and the multiplicity of endogenous GPCR ligands, in addition to a scarcity of biological and pharmacological tools for elucidating GPCR-mediated cellular processes beyond initial signaling events.
