Comparison of Ranking Methods for Virtual Screening in Lead-Discovery Programs
This paper discusses the use of several rank-based virtual screening methods for prioritizing compounds in lead-discovery programs, given a training set for which both structural and bioactivity data are available. Structures from the NCI AIDS data set and from the Syngenta corporate database were represented by two types of fragment bit-string and by sets of high-level molecular features. Thes...
متن کاملVirtual combinatorial chemistry and in silico screening: Efficient tools for lead structure discovery?*
In this article, an overview of the most common ligand-based in silico screening techniques is given together with an example on the recent successful application of combined use of pharmacophore modeling, database mining, and biological assays. Additionally, a new approach for structure-based high-throughput pharmacophore model generation is presented. The LigandScout program contains an autom...
متن کاملVirtual Screening as a Technique for PPAR Modulator Discovery
Virtual screening (VS) is a discovery technique to identify novel compounds with therapeutic and preventive efficacy against disease. Our current focus is on the in silico screening and discovery of novel peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma) agonists. It is well recognized that PPARgamma agonists have therapeutic applications as insulin sensitizers in type 2 diabetes or ...
متن کاملThe holistic integration of virtual screening in drug discovery.
During the past decade, virtual screening (VS) has come of age. In this review, we document the evolution and maturation of VS from a rather exotic, stand-alone method toward a versatile hit and lead identification technology. VS campaigns have become fully integrated into drug discovery campaigns, evenly matched and complementary to high-throughput screening (HTS) methods. Here, we propose a n...
