  3. Drugs, pesticides and COVID-19 drug subsets - new in 2020.2 release

    Seth Wiggin – Mon, 24 Aug 2020 10:48:00 GMT

    The 2020.2 CSD Release includes another 12,000+ CSD entries since the last data update in June and takes the total size of the CSD to over 1.08 million entries. Whilst this impressive rate of growth is testament to the ongoing efforts of scientists around the world, who publish and share the outcomes of their research with the community, the sheer size and diversity of structures in the CSD can be somewhat daunting.

    To help researchers investigate insights into particular categories of compounds, the 2020.2 CSD Release has extended the range of available subsets, with new lists of structures focused on drugs, pesticides and those structures that have been highlighted as being of interest in the fight against COVID-19. These new CSD subsets add to the existing subsets that include ‘best representative’ lists for statistical analysis of the CSD, subsets of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and CSD entries containing information on atomic anisotropic displacement parameters (ADPs; otherwise known as thermal ellipsoids).

  4. Pharmacophore based search - generating new ideas in drug discovery

    Francesca Stanzione – Thu, 13 Aug 2020 14:54:00 GMT

    Generating new ideas or looking at protein-ligand interactions in a novel way is key to innovative drug discovery and design. Pharmacophore models are an excellent way to do this.
