MolBench
MolBench is an interactive small molecule drawing, editing, and feature optimisation-focused library designing tool with live mapping of docking scores and other physicochemical properties.
Home Screen
The MolBench home screen provides the choice to start a new session or edit/review a previous run session (Figure 1).

Figure 1. The home screen of MolBench shows various menus, including the input menu to create a new session, “Create Session” (1), a list of all sessions created to date: “All Sessions” (2), the display menu (3), the session ID (4), the action items to revisit, edit, or delete a specific session, “Actions” (5), the scroll bar to scroll left and write in the page (6), the page settings (7), and the option to go back to the main dashboard (8).
To begin a new session, the user must choose option 1, "Create Session," and to revisit or end an existing session, they must choose option 5, "Action". A new page called "Create Editor Session" (Figure 2) will show up on the screen once the user hits the option “Create Session”.
📄️ Create Session
Figure 2. The “Create Editor Session” page of MolBench, shows the “Session Name” and tags (1); Browse button (2) to upload protein-ligand complex files in PDB format; Residue Name field (3) to select the name of the bound ligand or Het atoms in the uploaded protein-ligand complex file; Protein Chain field (4), which is an option to select a specific chain for ligand modification/designing; Checkbox to Enable Copilot Feature (5); and the “Create” button to start the session (6).
📄️ MolBench Editor
Figure 3. MolBench's "MolBench Editor" workspace. Session name (1), Molecular Properties (2), Ligand editing/drawing workspace (3), Generated ligand's daylight SMILES (4), Get Properties (5), Results (6), Compare and Export (7), and Back (8) are among the available workspace options and information.
📄️ Ligand Editor workspace
Figure 4. The ligand editor workspace. The workspace panel features an easy-to-use toolbar for drawing or editing molecules. The toolbars for editing (1, 2, 3\) and cleaning, pasting, and exporting (4) ligands or SMILES are shown by the highlighted numbers.
📄️ Result
Figure 5. The MolBench results panel. The panel houses enhanced features and options such as Compare and Export (1); List of generated or edited SMILES (2); Docking scores and molecular properties panel (3); 2D structure (4); SMILES selection check box (5), Docking Visualisation (6); Remove (7); and Load to editor (8).
