Discover New Molecules
CSD-Discovery Software Suite
For pharmaceutical and agrochemical researchers, the CSD-Discovery computer-aided drug discovery software suite provides all the tools you need to discover new molecules, including drug candidates.
What is CSD-Discovery?
CSD-Discovery combines CSD knowledge-based conformer generation, search and analysis of protein-ligand interactions with drug discovery software.
The suite provides full access to the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) together with the core search, visualization and analytical capabilities in CSD-Core.
Included within the package is GOLD, a leading protein-ligand docking platform that uses a genetic algorithm to accurately predict protein-ligand binding interactions.
CSD-Discovery is also available as part of the CSD-Enterprise package, aimed at university and research institutions access.
Why Researchers Choose CSD-Discovery
- To find and prioritize promising drug candidates faster through virtual screening and protein-ligand docking.
- To reduce design uncertainty using experimentally validated structural data and interaction knowledge.
- To understand how molecules bind and behave to support better medicinal chemistry decisions.
- To automate and scale discovery workflows with advanced analytics and programmable tools.
