In this example, we are going to use the reaction-based library enumeration feature in StarDrop’s Nova module to generate a library of virtual compounds. This will be based on pre-defined sets of reagents that will be used to generate products using well-known reactions.
This worked example uses StarDrop’s Surflex eSim3D module to assess a small library of compounds for their similarity to known Heat Shock Protein 90 (HSP90) ligands.
In this example we will illustrate how knowledge-based predictions of toxicity can be used within a MPO environment to guide the selection and design of compounds with a good balance of properties and reduced risk of toxicity.
During this example we will consider three compounds from a lead series which we would like to try to evolve into a candidate. The compound has a good profile of ADME properties but insufficient inhibition of the target, the Serotonin transporter. In this example we will use StarDrop’s Nova module to generate new ideas for compounds to improve the potency while maintaining the balance of other properties.
In this example, using StarDrop’s R-group clipping tool, we will quickly transform chemical building blocks into their corresponding substituents, ready to enumerate a virtual library in StarDrop’s Nova module.
This worked example explores ways to assess and design compounds in 3D using the SeeSAR Pose module.
This worked example explores ways to assess the binding affinity of docked compounds.
In this example we will explore the feasibility of pursuing a fast-follower for Buspirone, a 5-HT1A ligand used as an anti-anxiolytic therapeutic, which has a known liability due to rapid metabolism by CYP3A4.
This example looks at R-group analysis of chemical series to identify key functionalities which influence potency.
In this example, we will use the Sensitivity Analysis tool in StarDrop’s MPO Explorer module to check if the ranking of compounds in a data set is sensitive to any of the criteria or importance values in a scoring profile.
In this example we will use the Profile Builder in StarDrop’s MPO Explorer module to derive a multi-parameter scoring profile, based on a CNS data set.
This SeeSAR and ADME QSAR worked example uses a combination of 2D and 3D methods to understand and optimise a virtual library of Heat Shock Protein 90 (HSP90) inhibitors.
This example explores the application of the Auto-Modeller module to build a QSAR model of potency against the Muscurinic Acetylcholine M5 receptor, based on public domain Ki data. The resulting model is applied to novel compound to predict their properties and visualise the SAR.
In this example, scaffold hopping with library enumeration, we are going to use the library enumeration feature in StarDrop’s Nova…
In this webinar, we demonstrate how Inspyra™ creates a seamless blend of your expertise and unique AI that fits naturally within your workflow. It helps you to rigorously explore many optimisation strategies and quickly identify high-quality compounds for your projects.
In this study, we identified a new antimalarial with an unusual structure – the only compound in the competition to be proven active, opening up new chemistry for exploration.
Why have generative chemistry methods been unable to redefine modern drug discovery and compound idea generation?’ In this session we shed light on a typical shortcoming of generative methods related to prioritising promising over unsuitable directions for exploration.
In this webinar, we demonstrate intuitive workflows for 3D ligand-based drug design
Innovative predictive methods support virtual screening and compound design in the absence of 3D structure data.
