OpenBioAI and RowanSci demo cordyceps chemistry with structure views and pKa prediction
CatAstro_Piyush · x · 2026-07-22
A post about using OpenBioAI and RowanSci to explore cordyceps chemistry shows an AI-assisted science workflow, not just a casual update.
The screenshots highlight two outputs:
- a molecular structure viewer for cordycepin and related compounds
- pKa prediction results, including strongest acid/base values and atom-level estimates
The thread also explains cordycepin’s key property: it enters cells and inhibits RNA synthesis, which is part of why it has anticancer and antiviral relevance.
