Concepts, Challenges, and Successes in Modeling Thermodynamics of Metabolism
The modeling of the chemical reactions involved in metabolism is a daunting task. Ideally, the modeling of metabolism would use kinetic simulations, but these simulations require knowledge of the thousands of rate constants involved in the reactions. The measurement of rate constants is very labor intensive, and hence rate constants for most enzymatic reactions are not available. Consequently, ...
متن کاملPredicting drug metabolism: Concepts and challenges*
The paper begins with a discussion of the needs and goals of metabolic predictions in early drug research. Major difficulties toward this objective are examined, mainly the various substrate and product selectivities characteristic of drug metabolism. In a second part, we classify and summarize the major in silico methods used to predict drug metabolism. A discrimination is thus made between “l...
متن کاملDocking: successes and challenges.
The state of the art of various computational aspects of docking-based virtual screening of database of small molecules is presented. The review encompasses the different search algorithms and the scoring functions used in docking methods and their applications to protein and nucleic acid drug targets. Recent progress made in the development and application of methods to include target flexibil...
متن کاملChallenges and Successes
Highly effective conversion of kinetic energy into abundant particle multiplicity is the remarkable feature discovered in high energy heavy ion collisions. This short and pedagogic review addresses topical issues related to the understanding of this phenomenon, originating in the creation of the deconfined quark–gluon plasma phase. I consider in depth the apparently simple, yet sometimes misund...
متن کاملMulti-Variant Modeling Concepts, Issues, and Challenges
When applying model-driven engineering to a product line, there is a need to deal with multi-variant models. So far, in industry software product line engineering has primarily been applied to data represented in (text) files and directories. Applying variation to non-textual models is more difficult, since models are complex structured objects. This paper presents basic concepts and discusses ...
