Virtual High-Throughput Screening (VHTS)

VHTS with Autodock4

Potential advantages of Cloud Computing for VHTS • Affordable access to compute resources (especially for small labs and classrooms). • Easy to use interface accessible through web for non-computer experts. Software maintained by experts. • Scalable resources for size of screening.

Kandinsky Private Cloud Platform at ORNL Kandinsky, the Systems Biology Knowledgebase Computer, Sponsored by the Office of Biological and Environmental Research in the DOE Office of Science 68 nodes X 16 cores/node = 1088 cores 20 Gbps Infiniband Interconnect Designed to support Hadoop applications and gain an understanding of the MapReduce paradigm. • 57 nodes for MapReduce tasks • 1 tasktracker per node • 10 map and 6 reduce tasks per node (16 tasks per node) • 570 map tasks and 342 reduce tasks can run simultaneously on Kandinsky

Hadoop • Scalable • Economical • Efficient • Reliable http://hadoop.apache.org/common/docs/current/api/overview-summary.html

MapReduce programming paradigm used by Hadoop people.apache.org people.apache.org

Current AutoDockCloud Implementation input=file names needed for each docking map(input) { copy input to local working directory; run AutoDock4 locally; copy result file to HDFS; } *pre-docking set-up and post-docking analysis is currently done manually *no reduce function is currently being used

Current AutoDockCloud Implementation Er Agonist screening from DUD as benchmark 450 speed-up with 570 available map slots on Kandinsky, private cloud at ORNL

Current AutoDockCloud Implementation Percent of known ligands found Percent of ranked database Docking enrichment plot for ER agonist using AutoDockCloud and DUD.

Future AutoDockCloud Implementation input=ligand file from chemical compound database map(input) { create pdbqt (AutoDock input file) from input; run AutoDock4 locally; find best scoring ligand structure; save structure to HDFS; return <score, ligand>; } reduce(<score, ligand>) { sort; return ranked_database; } *pre-docking and post-docking will be automated and distributed *less total I/O requirements

Future Plans • Incorporate additional docking engines – Autodock Vina • Less I/O • More efficient and accurate algorithm • No charge information needed • Deploy on Commercial Cloud (EC2) • Develop web interface
