Structural bioinformatic approaches to the discovery of new antimycobacterial drugs.
Integrated bioinformatic approaches to drug discovery exploit computational techniques to examine the flow of information from genome to structure to function. Informatics is being be used to accelerate and rationalize the process of antimycobacterial drug discovery and design, with the immediate goals to identify viable drug targets and produce a set of critically evaluated protein target mode...
متن کاملFrom Design to Screening: A New Antimicrobial Peptide Discovery Pipeline
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) belong to a class of natural microbicidal molecules that have been receiving great attention for their lower propensity for inducing drug resistance, hence, their potential as alternative drugs to conventional antibiotics. By generating AMP libraries, one can study a large number of candidates for their activities simultaneously in a timely manner. Here, we describ...
متن کاملSynthetic approaches to the 2007 new drugs.
New drugs are introduced to the market every year and each individual drug represents a privileged structure for its biological target. These new chemical entities (NCEs) provide insights into molecular recognition and also serve as leads for designing future new drugs. This review covers the syntheses of 19 NCEs marketed in 2007.
متن کاملCandidiasis drug discovery and development: new approaches targeting virulence for discovering and identifying new antifungal drugs
Professor of Biology University of Texas at San Antonio Candidiasis Drug Discovery and Development: New Approaches Targeting Virulence for Discovering and Identifying New Antifungal Drugs Targeting pathogenetic mechanisms rather than essential processes represents a very attractive alternative for the development of new antibiotics. This may be particularly important in the case of antimycotics...
متن کاملNew approaches in identifying drugs to inactivate oncogene products.
With an information explosion on the molecular mechanism of oncogenesis, the completion of the human genome sequence project, and the advances in genomic and proteomic methods, many therapeutic targets for various cancers have been identified. It is timely that a number of new drug development techniques have been developed in this last decade. Candidate drug targets can now be efficiently vali...
