Inverse Virtual Screening

Inverse virtual screening (IVS) is a computational method for predicting possible biological targets of a target molecule. This technique has important applications in computer-aided drug design and target discovery. CD ComputaBio is a company focusing on providing efficient and accurate biocomputing services, and is dedicated to providing customers with comprehensive target fishing and targeting analysis services through inverse virtual screening technology.

Introduction of Inverse Virtual Screening

Inverse virtual screening is a computational method for predicting the biological targets of a target molecule. This strategy involves screening a set of potential protein targets to determine the likely biological target of a molecule. In contrast to traditional virtual screening, in which a large library of compounds is typically screened to find compounds that interact with a specific protein target, the IVS process centers on a given chemical molecule to find its possible protein target. This approach provides a valuable tool for computational target fishing and target characterization.

Our Services Process

Database Construction

Create a database of a large number of potential targets, often including the three-dimensional structures of various proteins.

Molecular Docking

Computer simulations were used to match the target compounds with the targets in the database one by one to assess the binding energy and binding mode.

Scoring and Ranking

The docking results are scored based on the predicted binding affinity. The proteins are then ranked to identify those most likely to interact with the molecule of interest.

Applications

  1. 1 Drug Discovery - IVS accelerates the identification of potential drug candidates by revealing novel targets and off-target effects.
  2. 2Biology Research - Helps in understanding protein function and interaction networks.
  3. 3Toxicology - IVS can predict toxic interactions, aiding in the assessment of drug safety.
