The need for scientific software engineering in the pharmaceutical industryJournal of Computer-Aided Molecular Design - Tập 31 - Trang 301-304 - 2016
Brock Luty, Peter W. Rose
Scientific software engineering is a distinct discipline from both computational chemistry project support and research informatics. A scientific software engineer not only has a deep understanding of the science of drug discovery but also the desire, skills and time to apply good software engineering practices. A good team of scientific software engineers can create a software foundation that is ...... hiện toàn bộ
Computational approaches for predicting mutant protein stabilityJournal of Computer-Aided Molecular Design - Tập 30 - Trang 401-412 - 2016
Shweta Kulshreshtha, Vigi Chaudhary, Girish K. Goswami, Nidhi Mathur
Mutations in the protein affect not only the structure of protein, but also its function and stability. Prediction of mutant protein stability with accuracy is desired for uncovering the molecular aspects of diseases and design of novel proteins. Many advanced computational approaches have been developed over the years, to predict the stability and function of a mutated protein. These approaches b...... hiện toàn bộ
A Monte Carlo pharmacophore generation procedure: Application to the human PAF receptorJournal of Computer-Aided Molecular Design - Tập 7 - Trang 515-534 - 1993
Edward E. Hodgkin, Andrew Miller, Mark Whittaker
A novel pharmacophore definition procedure is described, which uses a Monte Carlo method to superimpose molecules. Pharmacophore space is searched by a technique similar to high temperature annealing. Subsequent refinement of candidate pharmacophores by energy minimization produces low-energy conformations that may be involved in receptor binding. The method has been applied to compounds that bind...... hiện toàn bộ
Towards the automatic design of synthetically accessible protein ligands: Peptides, amides and peptidomimeticsJournal of Computer-Aided Molecular Design - Tập 10 - Trang 265-272 - 1996
Hans-Joachim Böhm
The computer program LUDI for the de novo design of protein ligands was extended so that it is now able to take into account the synthetic accessibility of the constructed molecules. As an example, the design of peptides, amides and peptidomimetics using amino acids as building blocks is described. Two new libraries containing natural and non-natural amino acids were constructed for this purpose. ...... hiện toàn bộ
Predicting protein–ligand binding modes for CELPP and GC3: workflows and insightJournal of Computer-Aided Molecular Design - Tập 33 - Trang 367-374 - 2019
Xianjin Xu, Zhiwei Ma, Rui Duan, Xiaoqin Zou
Drug Design Data Resource (D3R) continues to release valuable benchmarking datasets to promote improvement and development of computational methods for new drug discovery. We have developed several methods for protein–ligand binding mode prediction during the participation in the D3R challenges. In the present study, these methods were integrated, automated, and systematically tested using the lar...... hiện toàn bộ
Computer simulation of the binding of quinocarcin to DNA. Prediction of mode of action and absolute configurationJournal of Computer-Aided Molecular Design - Tập 2 - Trang 91-106 - 1988
G. Craig Hill, Timothy P. Wunz, William A. Remers
Computer-based models were derived for the covalent and noncovalent binding of the antitumor antibiotic quinocarcin to a representative DNA segment, d(ATGCAT)2. They showed that a mode of action, involving opening of the oxazolidine ring to give an iminium ion, followed by initial noncovalent binding in the minor groove and subsequent alkylation of the 2-amino group of guanine, was rational and at...... hiện toàn bộ
