Vilya-1: An All-Atom Foundation Model for Macrocycle Structure Prediction and Design
Jul 14, 2026
Researchers have developed Vilya-1, a deep learning model that predicts the structures and properties of macrocycles using an all-atom representation. Vilya-1 demonstrates improved geometric accuracy over existing computational methods and supports the generative design of novel macrocycles across diverse chemical classes.
Why it matters: Vilya-1 could significantly accelerate the development of macrocycle-based therapeutics by enabling more accurate and generalizable structure prediction and design.
