The purpose of this article is to illustrate how to apply some of 3decision’s features in scientific research. For this use case, the 3decision Subpocket Similarity Search is used to suggest modifications for the optimization of a small- molecule PROTAC. The Protein-Ligand interaction coloring by statistics is then used to evaluate docking poses of new compounds. The bromodomain-containing protein 4 – cereblon complex (BRD4-CBRN) and its degrader dBET23 are used as an example.
Read MoreDiscngine’s 3decision team is partnering up with Nanome to bring a new dimension to structural analysis. With 3decision in VR, users will be able to entirely exploit the structural knowledge stored in 3decision in a new and advanced way to accelerate drug-design processes.
Read MoreManuel Cases Thomas, a Medicinal chemistry consultant and director at Senechaem was looking for a solution to help him use the full potential of data at hand and generate new design ideas. In this interview, he shares how 3decision® makes a difference in his daily work: from a scientific need to the impact on design ideas and successful project outcomes.
Read MoreI found my way to quickly learn new software: by validating its features. In this article, I am presenting the retrospective analysis of the detection of BCR-ABL1 allosteric binding site using the 3decision Pocket Explorer feature.
Read MoreThe updated 3decision® version has some important new features for cross-team collaboration and structure-based drug design project management. A lot of improvements are made on the structure visualization UI as well.
Read MoreThis short post shows how to quickly analyze larger collections of structures and check for common and different parts among such large sets of structures.
Read MoreThe continuous increase in the available 3D structural data brings along changes in the medicinal chemistry field. Dr. George Sheppard, Senior Principal Research Scientist at AbbVie, shared his thoughts on the benefits for medicinal chemists using 3D information, current challenges and limitations, and proposed potential ways for improvement, in the following interview.
Read MoreRecently, our collaborative platform, 3decision, just saw itself complemented with two new features (subpocket search & interaction search) and a radically different User Experience (UX). This new UX, with an updated User Interface (UI), is the result of months of collaborative work between UserStudio and the 3decision team.
In order to tell the story of this project, we gathered people from both companies to answer a few questions.
The highly requested and long-awaited interaction search is finally here! Given the great amount of structural data we have at hand, the ability to mine ligand-protein complexes based on the interactions they create was a missing piece in our analytics toolbox.
Read MoreSelect a couple of amino acids in the binding site of your protein and retrieve, in a matter of minutes, other structures in the database which contain a similar subpocket. Similar meaning, similar features arranged similarly in 3D space. This is what the new subpocket search feature will allow you to do in the next release of 3decision!
Read MoreLast year, we set out a process to improve the user experience in 3decision. After years of gathering feedback and interviewing key users, we knew it was time to address the design and workflow flaws in the user interface. With the help of User Studio, an external UI/UX design company, we went through a deep refactoring and restyling of the front-end. The resulting work will be available in the next upcoming release of 3decision (3decision v2)!
Read MoreThis time around you won’t see any source code. Sorry about that, next time maybe.
Here I’ll talk more about sometimes overlooked aspects when developing applications for R&D in life sciences. So I guess this post might be useful to our competitors or people developing applications within large corporations in the life science & pharma industry … anyway ;)
I’ll take the example of our current 3decision developments. You might have heard or read about 3decision already before. If not, check it out - 3decision .. it’s super cool!
