 pKasolver is a package that enables prediction of pKa values of small molecules via graph convolutional networks. 
 This repository and data was used for the preprint [**Improving Small Molecule pKa Prediction Using Transfer Learning with Graph Neural Networks**](https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2022.01.20.476787v1).
 
-## Prerequisites
+Due to the restrictive licence of Schrödinger's Epik, we are unfortunatly unable to distribute the models that were trained using the transfer learning approach (pkasolver-epic), described by this publication. Instead, the model provided with this repository and used by the Google Colab Jupyter notebook, described below, has been trained without the transfer learning step (pkasolver-lite). For details about the limitations of this models see the publication.

 ### Installation
 
 We recommend using anaconda to set up a new repository (https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda/en/latest/user-guide/tasks/manage-environments.html) and installing the dependencies listed in `devtools/conda-envs/test_env.yaml`.

 Depending on your needs you can either use the juptyer notebook deposited in the `notebooks` directory which demonstrate the usage of the pkasolver package (this needs a local installation of the pkasolver package).
 Or you can use the provided google colabs that automatically installs everything in a hosted notebook and allows you to use the package for pka prediction without a local installation: https://github.com/mayrf/pkasolver/blob/main/notebooks/pka_prediction.ipynb
 
-To generate your own models, take a look at the `scripts` folder in the corresponding data repository: https://github.com/wiederm/pkasolver-data. It contains notebooks to reproduce the plots shwon in [placeholder] and python scripts to prepare the data, train models and visualize their performance.
