Computational and Structural Approaches to Drug Discovery

Ligand-Protein Interactions

400 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Computational methods impact all aspects of modern drug discovery and most notably these methods move rapidly from academic exercises to becoming drugs in clinical trials. This insightful book represents the experience and understanding of the global experts in the field and spotlights both the structural and medicinal chemistry aspects of drug design. The need to 'encode' the factors that determine adsorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicology are explored, as they remain the critical issues in this area of research. Addressing a wide range of uses of protein structures for drug discovery, the Editors have created an essential reference for professionals in the pharmaceutical industry and a core text for all graduate level courses covering molecular interactions and drug discovery.
