Researchers have developed a new method to estimate the required size of a second-generation DNA-encoded library (DEL) for training high-resolution binding models. This approach uses an "energy pixels" concept, treating binding as a sum of small interactions between a target protein and a ligand. By analyzing the spread of affinities from an initial DEL, the method determines the number of compounds needed for dense sampling and identifies tight binders, thereby estimating the complexity required for effective machine learning guidance in medicinal chemistry.
