Computational Multitarget Drug Discovery
Pharmaceutical substances have been discovered by means ranging from serendipitous observation [1,2] to specific engineering [3]. The purpose is nearly always to combat one particular disease, and the approach is most often trial and error. The efficiency of these pharmaceutical hunts has been improved greatly by highthroughput pharmaceutical platforms, but the requirement of physical experimen...
متن کاملHunting for predictive computational drug-discovery models.
The Keystone Symposium on Computer-Aided Drug Design was held at Steamboat Springs (CO, USA), from March 29th to the 3rd of April, 2008. The organizers brought together approximately 180 participants, representing a cross-section of viewpoints from academia and the pharmaceutical industry. Since it is a young discipline, it was a privilege to have a keynote introduction from one of the original...
متن کاملComputational methods in drug discovery
The process for drug discovery and development is challenging, time consuming and expensive. Computer-aided drug discovery (CADD) tools can act as a virtual shortcut, assisting in the expedition of this long process and potentially reducing the cost of research and development. Today CADD has become an effective and indispensable tool in therapeutic development. The human genome project has mad...
متن کاملComputational methods in drug discovery.
Computer-aided drug discovery/design methods have played a major role in the development of therapeutically important small molecules for over three decades. These methods are broadly classified as either structure-based or ligand-based methods. Structure-based methods are in principle analogous to high-throughput screening in that both target and ligand structure information is imperative. Str...
متن کاملComparison of experimental and computational functional group mapping of an RNase A structure: implications for computer-aided drug design.
One relatively new computational approach to the drug discovery process involves calculating functional group maps of a target structure. Experimental functional group mapping techniques have also recently emerged. In this paper, the structure of RNase A with two bound formates (i.e. carboxylate functionalities) is used as a model system to test the computational methodology. Functional group m...
