Pharmacophore Discovery - Lessons Learned [PDF]
Frontiers in Medicinal Chemistry - Online, 2003 Pharmacophore discovery is one of the major elements of molecular modeling in the absence of X-ray structural data. While pharmacophores initially made their debut as a means for lead discovery, more recent refinements have brought them into the domain of lead optimization, e.g. as a means to define the molecular alignment in 3D-QSAR.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.An electrochemical Hofmann rearrangement of amide involving amine or other amide nucleophiles has been developed. The use of NaI guarantees the feasibility and compatibility of the electrosynthesis protocol, which enables highly chemoselective synthesis of unsymmetrical N‐acylureas from two different amides, as well as the production of unsymmetrical ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.TarPass provides a rigorous benchmark for target‐aware de novo molecular generation by jointly evaluating protein‐ligand interactions, molecular plausibility, and drug‐likeness on 18 well‐studied targets. Results show that current models often fail to consistently surpass random baseline in target‐specific enrichment, while post hoc multi‐tier virtual ...

, 2017 Blockage of some ion channels and in particular, the hERG cardiac potassium channel delays cardiac repolarization and can induce arrhythmia. In some cases it leads to a potentially life-threatening arrhythmia known as Torsade de Pointes (TdP).

Towards a Pharmacophore for Amyloid [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2011 Diagnosing and treating Alzheimer's and other diseases associated with amyloid fibers remains a great challenge despite intensive research. To aid in this effort, we present atomic structures of fiber-forming segments of proteins involved in Alzheimer's disease in complex with small molecule binders, determined by X-ray microcrystallography.
