Reproduce Our Results

We don't ask you to trust us - we give you the tools to verify.

Every benchmark target in the Demo Gallery includes a full replication kit that you can download and use to independently reproduce our published AUC numbers.

What's in a Replication Kit?

Each kit is a ZIP file containing:

File Description
receptor.pdb The prepared receptor structure used for scoring
scores.csv Pre-computed scores with activity labels
pdb_code.txt PDB ID of the source crystal structure
execution_log.txt Full metadata: target ID, profile, scoring mode, timestamps

Step-by-Step Verification

Method 1: Using IsoScore (Browser)

  1. Go to the Demo Gallery and choose any target
  2. Click Download Raw Data to get the replication kit ZIP
  3. Extract the ZIP and note the receptor PDB and ligands
  4. Go to IsoScore
  5. Upload the receptor PDB and ligands SDF from the kit
  6. Select Standard tier and click Score Poses
  7. Compare your AUC to the published number on the demo page

Method 2: Using the CLI

# Download the kit for a target (e.g., ACE)
curl -O https://app.latticezero.com/demo/run/replication/ace

# Extract
unzip ace_replication_kit.zip -d ace_kit/

# Score using lz-score
lz-score --receptor ace_kit/receptor.pdb \
         --ligands ace_kit/ligands.sdf \
         --emit-terms \
         --output scored.csv

# Compute AUC using the activity labels
python3 -c "
import csv
scores = []
with open('scored.csv') as f:
    for row in csv.DictReader(f):
        scores.append((float(row['score']), row.get('is_active', '0') == '1'))
# Sort by score (lower is better)
scores.sort(key=lambda x: x[0])
# Compute AUC...
"

Available Targets

All 18 DEKOIS2 targets in the Demo Gallery have replication kits:

ACE, MDM2, A2A, AmpC, BACE1, CDK2, EGFR, ESR1, FXa, GBA, HDAC2, HSP90, MCL1, P38A, PARP1, PDE5, Thrombin, UROK

Why This Matters

In computational chemistry, reproducibility is everything. By providing full input bundles with every benchmark:

  • You can verify our AUC claims on your own hardware
  • You can compare LatticeZero's scoring to your existing tools (Glide, Vina, GOLD)
  • You can audit the quality of our decoy sets and activity labels
  • You can build trust in the platform before committing proprietary compounds

As one evaluator put it: "If a vendor gives me everything I need to prove them wrong, they probably aren't wrong."
