tooluniverse-binder-discovery

Discover novel small-molecule binders for protein targets using structure-based and ligand-based screening. Covers druggability assessment, known-ligand mining (ChEMBL, BindingDB), similarity expansion, ADMET filtering, and synthesis feasibility. Use for hit identification, virtual screening, target-to-compounds workflows, and lead-finding before commit-to-medchem.

# Small Molecule Binder Discovery Strategy

Systematic discovery of novel small molecule binders using 60+ ToolUniverse tools across druggability assessment, known ligand mining, similarity expansion, ADMET filtering, and synthesis feasibility.

**LOOK UP DON'T GUESS** - Always retrieve actual data from tools before drawing conclusions. Do not assume druggability, binding sites, or compound properties based on target class alone.

**KEY PRINCIPLES**:
1. **Report-first approach** - Create report file FIRST, then populate progressively
2. **Target validation FIRST** - Confirm druggability before compound searching
3. **Multi-strategy approach** - Combine structure-based and ligand-based methods
4. **ADMET-aware filtering** - Eliminate poor compounds early
5. **Evidence grading** - Grade candidates by supporting evidence
6. **Actionable output** - Provide prioritized candidates with rationale
7. **English-first queries** - Always use English terms in tool calls. Respond in the user's language
