COMPUTER AIDED DRUG DESIGN
Rational Drug Design
2. *In the fast pace world fast pace development of drug is
essential.
*This has been boosted by Computer aided drug design(CADD).
*The methodology has been cost-effective reducing the labour
and time of design and discovery by almost fifty percent.
*The paper discusses mainly those approaches of CADD mainly
developed based the structure of macromolecule protein.
7. *A stage in early drug discovery
* small molecule hits from a high throughput
screen (HTS) are evaluated and undergo limited
optimization to identify promising lead compounds.
Or Lead generation
Binding to target
Epitope Binning
Cpds that compete for the
same binding region are
grouped together into bins.
Affinity Ranking
Concentration
Ligand binding
Activity
8. a structure-based analysis of :
*docking poses
*energy profiles for hit analogs,
*ligand-based screening for
compounds with similar chemical
structure or improved predicted
biological activity,
*or prediction of favorable affinity
or optimize drug metabolism and
pharmacokinetics
*ADME and the potential for
toxicity properties
10. SBDD
Examples:
Saquinavir and Amprenavir which were developed
targeting HIV-1 protease based on SBDD.
Dorzolamide is a carbonic anhydrase II inhibitor was also
sought on SBDD approach.
11. *HIV protease inhibitors – now a key component of
multidrug HIV treatments – are a prime example of
structure-based drug design
*HIV’s protease enzymes were validated as a
potential drug target in 1985, sparking a race to
unravel the enzyme’s structure
*X-ray crystal structures of the enzyme began
appearing in 1989 –and the first drugs designed to
inhibit it were licensed for use just six years later
*Structure-based drug design has since become an
established drug discovery tool

13. LIGAND BASED DRUG DESIGN
Pharmacophore-Based Drug Design: IUPAC defines pharmacophore as:
“the ensemble of steric and electronic features that is necessary to
ensure the optimal supramolecular interactions with a specific biological
target structure and to trigger (or toblock) its biological response.
A pharmacophore does not represent a real molecule or a real
association of functional groups, but a purely abstract concept that
accounts for the common molecular interaction capacities of a group of
compounds towards their target structure.
Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationships (QSAR) is an example of a
method, which can be applied regardless of whether the structure is
known or unknown.
The active ligands must bind to the receptor in an analogous manner. 3D-
QSAR is a variant of the classical QSAR method (sometimes referred to as
2D-QSAR), in which the descriptors are based on the 3D-structure of the
compounds instead of macro properties like weight and volume.
This method involves the use of 3D-QSAR programs such as CoMFA, Apex-
3D, CATALYST, DISCO,MSA, etc.
16. Homology Modeling
Examples:
•Homology modeling of HIV protease from a distantly-
related structure has been used in the design of
inhibitors for this structure.
•Also, structure prediction of M antigen by homology
modeling has given insights into its function by
revealing that the structures and domains are similar
to fungal catalases.
