💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Rowan eliminates the need to set up local quantum chemistry tools and docking software by providing a unified cloud API for molecular simulation and drug-discovery style computations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • pKa and property prediction: Compute pKa and related molecular properties (e.g., redox, solubility, ADMET-Tox) from SMILES or RDKit molecules for lead prioritization.
  • Geometry optimization and conformer search: Generate 3D conformer ensembles and optimize structures to support downstream analysis or docking preparation.
  • Protein-ligand docking and AI cofolding: Predict binding poses with AutoDock Vina and model protein-ligand complexes using Chai-1/Boltz models for hypothesis generation.
  • Automation-friendly workflow management: Submit single or batch jobs, monitor status, and fetch results programmatically with optional folder organization for project workflows.

Quick Start

Configure your Rowan API key, then submit a pKa workflow from a SMILES-derived molecule and wait for results to read the strongest acidic pKa value.

Frequently Asked Questions about rowan

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I run molecular docking and quantum chemistry computations without installing local software?

You can run molecular docking and quantum chemistry computations by submitting jobs through a cloud API, eliminating the need for local software setup. Submit single or batch workflows programmatically and poll for structured computation results.

Can I predict molecular pKa and ADMET properties from SMILES strings?

Yes, you can predict pKa and related molecular properties like solubility and ADMET-Tox directly from SMILES strings or RDKit molecules. This streamlines lead prioritization by returning structured property prediction results via API.

How do I automate protein-ligand docking and AI cofolding workflows in Python?

Automate protein-ligand docking and AI cofolding by submitting Python API calls to predict binding poses with AutoDock Vina and model complexes using Chai-1 or Boltz models. The cloud API handles job submission, status polling, and result retrieval.

Do I need an API key to submit conformer search and geometry optimization jobs?

Yes, API-key authentication is required to submit conformer search and geometry optimization jobs. Configure your API key to generate 3D conformer ensembles and optimize structures through cloud workflow submission.

What's the best way to manage batch workflows for structure-based drug discovery?

Manage batch workflows for structure-based drug discovery by submitting multiple computation jobs programmatically through the cloud API. Monitor job status, organize projects into folders, and fetch structured outputs suitable for medicinal chemistry automation.

Does this workflow support RDKit integration for molecular property prediction?

Yes, the workflow supports RDKit integration for molecular property prediction. You can pass RDKit molecules directly into pKa estimation, conformer generation, and geometry optimization pipelines via Python API calls.
