DeepCYP: an integrated deep learning web server for the holistic "pathway-site product" prediction of CYP450 metabolism.

CYP450 (cytochrome P450)-mediated drug metabolism is a critical determinant of pharmacokinetics and clinical safety, making comprehensive metabolic profiling essential for rational drug discovery. Here, we present DeepCYP (https://deepcyp.scbdd.com), a freely accessible deep-learning web server for end-to-end CYP450 metabolic profiling. Trained on an expanded dataset and a mechanism-based reaction rule library, DeepCYP uses a multi-task graph neural network (GNN) combined with multi-scale descriptors. Operating directly on 2D molecular graphs, this architecture bridges the entire "pathway-site-product" continuum across nine major CYP isoforms (CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP2E1, and CYP3A4) within a unified pipeline. Benchmarking demonstrates that DeepCYP outperforms established tools, including FAME3, SMARTCyp, and BioTransformer 3.0, improving Top-1 and Top-2 ranking metrics by over 10%. Furthermore, the server supports high-throughput batch processing, capable of evaluating ~280 molecules per minute. DeepCYP also enhances interpretability through an interactive visualization interface, featuring susceptibility radar charts and dynamic transformation tables. By translating abstract predictions into biological insights, DeepCYP provides a practical tool to accelerate lead optimization and mitigate toxicity risks.
