Visualize your chemical space by connecting KNIME and TIBCO Spotfire®: Introduction to the SWAK

Introducing the Spotfire Web Application for KNIME (a.k.a. SWAK), a Discngine-built connector between two widely used tools in data analysis: KNIME and TIBCO Spotfire®.

Méliné is showing how simple it is to visualize a dataset’s chemical space by building a KNIME workflow projecting the dataset onto the chemical space, before visualizing it efficiently with TIBCO Spotfire® through the SWAK!

Structure-based lead optimization of a PROTAC small-molecule in the BRD4-CRBN complex

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.

Getting ready for AlphaFold with 3decision®

Google-owned company DeepMind has achieved to predict 3D protein shapes with high accuracy and speed using the AI program AlphaFold. Although still in the early phase, this method can have a significant impact on drug discovery, accelerating the development of new drugs. In this article, we are discussing the importance of getting ready for the new source of structural data and how to gain the most of structural knowledge.
