Virtual screening strategies in drug design – methods and applications
Virtual screening (VS) overcomes the limitations of traditional high-throughput screening (HTS) by applying computer-based methods in drug discovery. VS takes advantage of fast algorithms to filter chemical space and successfully select potential drug candidates. A key aspect in structure-based VS is the sampling of ligand-receptor conformations and the evaluation of these poses to predict near...
متن کاملVirtual Screening: An Overview on Methods and Applications
Virtual screening, or VS, is emerging as a valuable tool in discovering new candidate inhibitors for many biologically relevant targets including the many chemotherapeutic targets that play key roles in cell signaling pathways. However, despite the great advances made in the field thus far, VS is still in constant development with a relatively low success rate that needs to be improved by paral...
متن کاملDocking-based inverse virtual screening: methods, applications, and challenges
Identifying potential protein targets for a small-compound ligand query is crucial to the process of drug development. However, there are tens of thousands of proteins in human alone, and it is almost impossible to scan all the existing proteins for a query ligand using current experimental methods. Recently, a computational technology called docking-based inverse virtual screening (IVS) has at...
متن کاملVirtual screening and its integration with modern drug design technologies.
Drug discovery is a highly complex and costly process, which demands integrated efforts in several relevant aspects involving innovation, knowledge, information, technologies, expertise, R&D investments and management skills. The shift from traditional to genomics- and proteomics-based drug research has fundamentally transformed key R&D strategies in the pharmaceutical industry addressed to the...
