The 24th European Microelectronics Packaging Conference will return to the United Kingdom at the Genome Centre, near Cambridge, from 12-14th September 2023. The event will present the latest developments in the field of microelectronics packaging and interconnection technologies from in...
Performing chemical modifications using the Library Enumerator in Flare™
Abstract The correct assignment of the tautomeric and protonation states of ligands is critical for successful molecular modeling experiments in both ligand-based and structure-based design approaches, as it may have a significant effect on the shape and electrostatic properties of the...
Covalent docking in Flare™ V7: new covalent warheads
Docking in Flare™ is one of the platform’s most popular functions, providing its users with detailed feedback on new molecule designs, high enrichment in virtual screening, and excellent pose prediction. Flare V7 now includes an expanded choice and more flexibility within its avail...
Flare™ V7 released: Access enhanced docking, better QSAR models and even more accurate FEP/ MD results
The new version 7 release of Cresset’s workbench for ligand-based and structure-based modelling is packed with new and enhanced scientific features and methods, including enhanced sampling of hydration patterns with Grand Canonical Nonequilibrium Candidate Monte Carlo (GCNCMC1) for mole...
Allostery under the lens of molecular dynamics simulations
On Wednesday 26th April 2023, we sponsored a virtual session hosted by the Boston Area Group for Informatics and Modeling (BAGIM) and their equivalent group in San Diego, SAGIM. Professor Julien Michel, Professor of Biomolecular Simulation at The University of Edinburgh and member of C...
Looking 'under the hood': using pyflare to streamline hit identification
Background Assessing the binding potency of millions of different compounds against a common protein target presents many challenges in a wet laboratory. Even with advanced lab robotics and automation platforms, wet laboratory high-throughput screening (HTS) is still hindered by time, ...
Orientate your proteins on ligand superimposition using the Flare™ Python API
The importance of protein and ligand orientation during 3D visualization The orientation of protein structures is a simple yet essential manipulation in any 3D visualization tool for medicinal and computational chemists. In silico workflows during early-stage hit and lead identificatio...
Using molecular dynamics to produce an ensemble of protein conformations for more biologically relevant docking experiments
Introductory Overview Earlier today, our Application Scientists, Abhijit Kayal and Ryuichiro Hara, led an exclusive online webinar session, focused on demonstrating how Molecular Dynamics and docking can work in synergy as an advanced research technique. ...
Identify the most active chemical structures with key desired properties through R-group decomposition and analysis
Drug discovery research often involves making small modifications to a compound and studying the subsequent effect on activity. Once a closely related series of compounds has been made and tested, it is very important to analyze which of the substituents enhances activity, and to also k...
