A critical step in structure-based drug discovery ispredictingwhether and how a candidate molecule binds to a model of a therapeutictarget. However, substantial protein side chain movements preventcurrent screening methods, such as docking, from accurately predictingthe ligand conformations and require expensive refinements to produceviable candidates. We present the development of a high-throughputand flexible ligand pose refinement workflow, called "tinyIFD".The main features of the workflow include the use of specialized high-throughput,small-system MD simulation code mdgx.cuda andan actively learning model zoo approach. We show the application ofthis workflow on a large test set of diverse protein targets, achieving66% and 76% success rates for finding a crystal-like pose within thetop-2 and top-5 poses, respectively. We also applied this workflowto the SARS-CoV-2 main protease (M-pro) inhibitors, wherewe demonstrate the benefit of the active learning aspect in this workflow.
