• Structure based designing
• 3D pharmacophore
• Pharmacophore mapping
• ADME database
3. STRUCTURE BASED SCREENING
It is a computational approach used in the pharmaceutical industry to develop new drug.
• It involves analyzing the 3D structure of a biological target,
• such as a protein or enzyme, and designing small molecules that can interact with the target
• specific way to modulate its activity
Uses:-
• computational modeling to understand the target’s structure and interactions.
• By designing molecules that fit precisely into the target’s active site or binding.
• researchers can create more effective and selective drugs with reduced side effects.
5. 3D PHARMACOPHORE
• Three-dimensional ensembles of chemically defined interactions of a ligand in its
bioactive conformation.
• Important for a molecule to interact with a biological target, such as a receptor or
enzyme.
• Properties like hydrogen bond donors, hydrogen bond acceptors, hydrophobic
regions, and aromatic rings.
• Creating a 3D pharmacophore model helps in drug design and virtual screening by
identifying compounds
• have similar 3D arrangements of features for discovery of potential drug designing.

7. PHARMACOPHORE MAPPING
• Pharmacophore mapping is a computational technique used in
drug discovery and molecular modeling to identify or design
molecules (ligands) that match a specific pharmacophore model.
• A pharmacophore is a representation of the essential chemical
features
• spatial arrangements required for a molecule to interact with a
biological target
• such as a receptor or enzyme.

9. ADME DATABASE
• An online database service that specializes in
pharmacokinetic information.
• It contains more than 130,000 data on metabolizing enzymes.
• transporters involved in drug absorption, distribution,
metabolism and excretion
• ADME,” are the internal processes that describe how a drug
moves throughout and is processed by the body.
10. • Drugbank.com is a
convenient secondary
database to look up
drug properties,
references, etc.
• Such database are
valuable for drug
discovery, development
and safety assessment.
