67 million natural product-like compound database generated via molecular language processing.

Natural products are a rich resource of bioactive compounds for valuable applications across multiple fields such as food, agriculture, and medicine. For natural product discovery, high throughput in silico screening offers a cost-effective alternative to traditional resource-heavy assay-guided exploration of structurally novel chemical space. In this data descriptor, we report a characterized database of 67,064,204 natural product-like molecules generated using a recurrent neural network trained on known natural products, demonstrating a significant 165-fold expansion in library size over the approximately 400,000 known natural products.
