TargetGen

target-aware molecular design

target-aware generative design

Design molecules that fit your pocket.

Load a receptor, pick a site, and let PocketXMol invent ligands in 3D — reranked live by drug-likeness. No CLI. No setup. Just a PDB.

how it works

Four steps. One PDB in, ranked ligands out.

01

Load a structure

Fetch by 4-character PDB ID from the RCSB, or upload your own experimental / predicted receptor. Waters, buffers and cryo-additives are hidden automatically.

PDB 3POZ
02

Pick a target site

P2Rank detects ligandable cavities in seconds. Native ligands from the PDB are also listed. Prefer manual? Click any atom in the 3D viewer to pin the site.

Generate 3D-aware ligands

PocketXMol (Cell, 2026) samples molecules atom-by-atom, guided by the pocket geometry and chemistry. Every candidate is a real 3D pose, not just a SMILES.

Rerank by constraints

Toggle Lipinski, tune MW/logP/QED, blacklist substructures. Sort by any property. The list re-scores instantly — no re-generation required.
