DRUG DISCOVERY
 Drug Discovery is the process through which potential
new medicines are identified.
3
PURPOSE OF DRUG DISCOVERY
 Drug discovery initiates because there is a disease or
clinical condition without suitable medical products
available.
 Rare diseases or orphan diseases.
4
TARGET IDENTIFICATION
 Target :- It is a cellular or molecular structures
involved in pathology which are responsible for disease.
They may be :-
1. Receptors
2. Enzyme
3. Nucleic acid
4. Hormone
5. Ion Channel
 Target Identification :- It is the process of identifying
the direct molecular target i.e protein, nucleic acid.
 It is aimed at finding the efficacy target of a drug.
 It is the first step in drug discovery 5

ROLE OF GENOMICS
 Genome :-
It is an organism complete set of DNA.
 Genomics :-
1. It is the field of science focusing on structure,
function, mapping of Genomes.
2. It is concerned with sequencing and analysis of an
organism genome. Types of
Genomics
Structural

Functional
Genomics
7
STRUCTURAL GENOMICS
 It is used to describe 3- D structure of every protein
encoded by a given genome.
 It has potential to inform knowledge of protein function.
 It characterize genome structures.
 Attempts to determine structure of every protein encoded
by genome rather than focusing on one particular protein.
 Various techniques used to determine structure of genome:-
 De novo methods
 Sequence based Modeling
 Shortgun Sequencing 8
FUNCTIONAL GENOMICS
 Focus on gene transcription, translation, regulation of
gene expression and protein- protein interactions.
 Goal is to understand relationship between an organism
genome and its phenotype.
 Measure all gene products like mRNA or proteins within
biological sample.
 Technique used:-
 DNA Microarray
9
10
PROTEOMICS
 Proteome :- Entire complement of proteins expressed by
a cell,tissue or organism.
 Proteomics :- large scale study of protein and their
functions.
Techniques to do Proteomics:-
2D Electrophoresis
11
CONTD...
 Protein Microarray
 High throughput method used to track the interactions
& activities of proteins and to determine their
functions.
 Method
 Proteins are immobilised on slides then they are
probed for variety of functions.
 Probe are labelled with fluoroscent dyes.
 When probe bind to protein gives fluoroscent signal.

BIOINFORMATICS
14
Bioinformatics has become an important part of many areas of biology. In
experimental molecular biology, bioinformatics techniques such
as image and signal processing allow extraction of useful results from large
amounts of raw data. In the field of genetics and genomics, it aids in sequencing
and annotating genomes and their observed mutations.
TARGET VALIDATION
 Target validation is the process by which the predicted
molecular target – for example protein or nucleic acid –
of a small molecule is verified.
 Target validation can include knockdown or
overexpression of the presumed target.
Tools for Target Validation
Antisense technologies
si RNA
Antisense
Oligonucleotides
15
SI RNA
 Small (or short) interfering RNA (siRNA) is the commonly used
forRNA interference (RNAi) tool for inducing short-term
silencing of protein coding genes.
 It is a double stranded RNA molecule which interferes with
the expression of specific genes by degrading mRNA after
transcription & preventing translation.
 siRNA is double stranded RNA(dsRNA). It consist of two RNA
strands, an antisense (or guide) strand and a sense (or passenger)
strand, which form a duplex
 20-24 bp length.
16
MECHANISM
 long dsRNA is cleaved by
an endo-ribonuclease
called Dicer to form short
interfering RNA or
siRNA.
 siRNA enters the cell and
binds to Argonaute
protein to form RISC.
 siRNA is then unwinded
to form single stranded
siRNA.
 si rna and RISC complex
find their complementary
mRNA
17
ANTISENSE OLIGONUCLEOTIDE
 Antisense technology prevent the synthesis of specific
protein.
 AS- ONS;15-20 nucleotides which are complementary to
their target mRNA.
 When these AS-ON combined with target mRNA, a
DNA/RNA hybrid form which degraded by the enzyme
RNase H.
 RNase H is a non specific endonuclease which catalyse
cleavage of RNA.
 RNase H has ribonuclease activity cleaves the 3’-O-P
bond of RNA in a DNA/RNAduplex.
18
19
MECHANISM OF ANTISENSE OLIGONUCLEOTIDE
20
ROLE OF TRANSGENIC ANIMALS
 Transgenic animals are animals that have a foreign gene
deliberately inserted into their genome.
Methods to insert transgenes
Microinjection
Embryonic stem cell
Retroviral vector method 21
CONTD...
Working example:-
 Target identification
 Suppose we identify disease
ie Alzeimer
Translated this disease
model into animals.
 Animal model of
AD(Streptozocin used to
induce beta amyloid protein
in hippocampus. 22
 Target identification by proteomics and genomics.
 Overexpression of APP protein is responsible for disease.
23
 Target Validation :-
 Validate that really
APP is responsible for
AD.
 Deliver mutant APP
gene into animal
 Progenies having
mutant APP gene
overexpressed
 Target validated 24

In experimental molecular biology, bioinformatics techniques such as image and signal processing allow extraction of useful results from large amounts of raw data. In the field of genetics and genomics, it aids in sequencing and annotating genomes and their observed mutations.
  • 15. TARGET VALIDATION  Target validation is the process by which the predicted molecular target – for example protein or nucleic acid – of a small molecule is verified.  Target validation can include knockdown or overexpression of the presumed target. Tools for Target Validation Antisense technologies si RNA Antisense Oligonucleotides 15
  • 16. SI RNA  Small (or short) interfering RNA (siRNA) is the commonly used forRNA interference (RNAi) tool for inducing short-term silencing of protein coding genes.  It is a double stranded RNA molecule which interferes with the expression of specific genes by degrading mRNA after transcription & preventing translation.  siRNA is double stranded RNA(dsRNA). It consist of two RNA strands, an antisense (or guide) strand and a sense (or passenger) strand, which form a duplex  20-24 bp length. 16
  • 17. MECHANISM  long dsRNA is cleaved by an endo-ribonuclease called Dicer to form short interfering RNA or siRNA.  siRNA enters the cell and binds to Argonaute protein to form RISC.  siRNA is then unwinded to form single stranded siRNA.  si rna and RISC complex find their complementary mRNA 17
  • 18. ANTISENSE OLIGONUCLEOTIDE  Antisense technology prevent the synthesis of specific protein.  AS- ONS;15-20 nucleotides which are complementary to their target mRNA.  When these AS-ON combined with target mRNA, a DNA/RNA hybrid form which degraded by the enzyme RNase H.  RNase H is a non specific endonuclease which catalyse cleavage of RNA.  RNase H has ribonuclease activity cleaves the 3’-O-P bond of RNA in a DNA/RNAduplex. 18
