Today, you learned about regression methods and how they are used in computer-aided drug design (CADD). Regression methods are statistical techniques that model the relationship between a dependent variable (such as the activity of a compound against a target protein) and one or more independent variables (such as the chemical features of the compound). Regression […]

Multiple sequence alignment (MSA) is a technique used in bioinformatics to compare and analyse the similarities and differences between three or more biological sequences. The sequences can be DNA, RNA, or protein sequences. MSA is an essential tool for studying the evolutionary relationships between different species and identifying conserved regions in the sequences. Why is

For decades, genetic engineering has been shrouded in mystery for the general public. Promising better crops and life-saving medical treatments sounds good, but tampering with DNA raises science fiction horrors of mutations gone wrong. Scientists in lab coats assured us it was too complex, too inaccurate, too dangerous for amateurs to meddle with the building

Protein structure visualization tools are software applications that allow users to view, manipulate, and analyze the three-dimensional (3D) structures of proteins and other biomolecules. These tools are essential for understanding the molecular architecture, function, and interactions of proteins, as well as for designing new drugs, vaccines, and biotechnologies. There are many protein structure visualization tools

Virtual screening is a computational technique used in drug discovery to identify potential molecules with desired properties from large databases. Through simulations and predictive modeling, virtual screening evaluates the interactions between molecules and target proteins, predicting their binding affinities and potential biological activities. This approach accelerates the identification of promising candidates, streamlining the initial stages

Medicine improves the quality of life by preventing or treating diseases. The fate of a drug from its discovery to launch into the market involves multifaceted complicated junctures. The drug development (DD) process involves four crucial phases: discovery, preclinical studies, clinical development and market approval (Hughes et al., 2011; Velmurugan et al., 2020). The search

The route of drug development is analogous to traversing a difficult maze with high risks. Traditional procedures are both time-consuming and expensive, with frequently low success rates. According to a recent research, the average cost of producing a new medication is $2.6 billion, with fewer than 14% making it through the arduous approval procedure. Scientists
