A Study on Cheminformatics and Its Applications on Modern Drug Discovery
Available online at www.sciencedirect.com Procedia Engineering 38 ( 2012 ) 1264 – 1275 Internatio na l Conference on Modeling Optimisatio n and Computing (ICMOC 2012) A Study on Cheminformatics and its Applications on Modern Drug Discovery B.Firdaus Begama and Dr. J.Satheesh Kumarb aResearch Scholar, Bharathiar University, Coimbatore, India, [email protected] bAssistant Professor, Bharathiar University, Coimbatore, India, [email protected] Abstract Discovering drugs to a disease is still a challenging task for medical researchers due to the complex structures of biomolecules which are responsible for disease such as AIDS, Cancer, Autism, Alzimear etc. Design and development of new efficient anti-drugs for the disease without any side effects are becoming mandatory in the recent history of human life cycle due to changes in various factors which includes food habit, environmental and migration in human life style. Cheminformaticds deals with discovering drugs based in modern drug discovery techniques which in turn rectifies complex issues in traditional drug discovery system. Cheminformatics tools, helps medical chemist for better understanding of complex structures of chemical compounds. Cheminformatics is a new emerging interdisciplinary field which primarily aims to discover Novel Chemical Entities [NCE] which ultimately results in design of new molecule [chemical data]. It also plays an important role for collecting, storing and analysing the chemical data. This paper focuses on cheminformatics and its applications on drug discovery and modern drug discovery techniques which helps chemist and medical researchers for finding solution to the complex disease. © 2012 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

Molecular Structure Input on the Web Peter Ertl
Ertl Journal of Cheminformatics 2010, 2:1 http://www.jcheminf.com/content/2/1/1 REVIEW Open Access Molecular structure input on the web Peter Ertl Abstract A molecule editor, that is program for input and editing of molecules, is an indispensable part of every cheminfor- matics or molecular processing system. This review focuses on a special type of molecule editors, namely those that are used for molecule structure input on the web. Scientific computing is now moving more and more in the direction of web services and cloud computing, with servers scattered all around the Internet. Thus a web browser has become the universal scientific user interface, and a tool to edit molecules directly within the web browser is essential. The review covers a history of web-based structure input, starting with simple text entry boxes and early molecule editors based on clickable maps, before moving to the current situation dominated by Java applets. One typical example - the popular JME Molecule Editor - will be described in more detail. Modern Ajax server-side molecule editors are also presented. And finally, the possible future direction of web-based molecule editing, based on tech- nologies like JavaScript and Flash, is discussed. Introduction this trend and input of molecular structures directly A program for the input and editing of molecules is an within a web browser is therefore of utmost importance. indispensable part of every cheminformatics or molecu- In this overview a history of entering molecules into lar processing system.

Pymol Modelling Workshop
PyMOL Modelling Workshop My website: http://pldserver1.biochem.queensu.ca/~rlc/work/teaching/BCHM442/ There you will find links to download the latest educational version of PyMOL as well as a link to my “Introduction to PyMOL”, which in turn has links to other people's PyMOL tutorials. Note also the PyMOL Wiki: http://pymolwiki.org. Structure files can be found by searching the Protein Data Bank (PDB) for structure: easy to remember website http://www.pdb.org. There is also the PDBe (PDB Europe, http://www.pdbe.org) that contains the same databank of structures, but with a different web interface for searching for structures and a different set of tools for analyzing structures. What is in a PDB file? Lots of information in the “header” (the section of the file preceding the actual atomic coordinates) as well as the coordinates for the atoms. When assessing a structure, one needs to take account of the resolution and R-factor, error estimates and missing residues. There is information about the sequence that was used to determine the structure with a sequence database reference. There is also information about the biological unit. In the case of crystal structures the biological unit may need to be generated by applying crystallographic symmetry operators, although there are web sites that also try to provide that information. (e.g. http://www.ebi.ac.uk/msd-srv/pisa/). Warning: One cannot blindly trust a crystal structure to be providing you with a completely accurate picture of reality. Reading the paper that describes the structure is a good start! Outline of PyMOL usage PyMOL is a very powerful, scriptable (customizable) tool for making publication-quality figures and performing analyses on structures. -

Intuitive Chemical Topology Concepts. / In
1 Intuitive Chemical Topology Concepts Eugene V. Babaev Moscow State University, Moscow 119899, RUSSIA 1. Introduction During last two decades, chemistry underwent a strong influence from nonroutine mathematical methods. Chemical applications of graph theory [1–10], topology [11–18], and related fields of fundamental mathematics [21–27] are growing rapidly. This trend may indicate the birth of a novel interdisciplinary field, mathematical chemistry, imperceptibly flourishing on the border of chemistry and pure mathematics. The term “chemical topology” (the title of this volume) has become frequent in papers, books, and scientific conferences. Similarly, the term molecular topology (differing in its sense from molecular geometry) has become frequently used, although there may exist diverse viewpoints on the meaning of this concept. The key difference between topology and geometry is that in geometry the concepts of distances and angles are important, whereas in topology they are not. Instead, the essential topological properties are connectedness and continuity. Chemical structural formulas are good examples of topological models of molecules: the pattern of connectivity between atoms is essential, whereas the interatomic distances and angles are less important and may be neglected. A colloquial definition of topology is “rubber” geometry. Indeed, one may consider a topological object made of an ideal elastic material, so that any deformation (like stretching or distortion) retains points of this elastic object “close enough” one to another. In contrast, cutting separates previously close points, and any joining of parts makes points “closer” one to another. Such a continuous transformation of an object without cutting and joining any parts is called homeomorphism. (The term should not be confused with homomorphism.) The study of properties that are invariant to homeomorphic transformations is the fundamental goal of topology. -

A series of atomistic molecular dynamics simulations were performed for 4-mer isoprene molecules confined between graphene sheets with varied graphene separations in order to observe the finite size effects arose from the van der Waals interactions between the isoprene oligomer, forming high density shells at the graphene interfaces. For the small confinement regions, 1.24 nm and 2.21 nm, local density of isoprene at the graphene interface becomes higher than 10 times the bulk density. These results provided the further insights towards the rational design of nanostructures based on graphene sheets and natural rubber polymer. 1. Introduction Composite material is the combination between two materials or more where chemical reaction between these materials is absent. In composites, one with higher quantity is called matrix while those with lesser quantity are called fillers. In general, adding fillers into matrix material enhances both physical and mechanical properties in some ways. -
Introduction to Bioinformatics (Elective) – SBB1609
SCHOOL OF BIO AND CHEMICAL ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT OF BIOTECHNOLOGY Unit 1 – Introduction to Bioinformatics (Elective) – SBB1609 1 I HISTORY OF BIOINFORMATICS Bioinformatics is an interdisciplinary field that develops methods and software tools for understanding biologicaldata. As an interdisciplinary field of science, bioinformatics combines computer science, statistics, mathematics, and engineering to analyze and interpret biological data. Bioinformatics has been used for in silico analyses of biological queries using mathematical and statistical techniques. Bioinformatics derives knowledge from computer analysis of biological data. These can consist of the information stored in the genetic code, but also experimental results from various sources, patient statistics, and scientific literature. Research in bioinformatics includes method development for storage, retrieval, and analysis of the data. Bioinformatics is a rapidly developing branch of biology and is highly interdisciplinary, using techniques and concepts from informatics, statistics, mathematics, chemistry, biochemistry, physics, and linguistics. It has many practical applications in different areas of biology and medicine. Bioinformatics: Research, development, or application of computational tools and approaches for expanding the use of biological, medical, behavioral or health data, including those to acquire, store, organize, archive, analyze, or visualize such data. Computational Biology: The development and application of data-analytical and theoretical methods, mathematical modeling and computational simulation techniques to the study of biological, behavioral, and social systems. "Classical" bioinformatics: "The mathematical, statistical and computing methods that aim to solve biological problems using DNA and amino acid sequences and related information.” The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI 2001) defines bioinformatics as: "Bioinformatics is the field of science in which biology, computer science, and information technology merge into a single discipline. -

From Chemical Topology to Molecular Machines Nobel Lecture, December 8, 2016 by Jean-Pierre Sauvage University of Strasbourg, Strasbourg, France
From Chemical Topology to Molecular Machines Nobel Lecture, December 8, 2016 by Jean-Pierre Sauvage University of Strasbourg, Strasbourg, France. o a large extent, the eld of “molecular machines” started aer several groups T were able to prepare reasonably easily interlocking ring compounds (named catenanes for compounds consisting of interlocking rings and rotaxanes for rings threaded by molecular laments or axes). Important families of molecular machines not belonging to the interlocking world were also designed, prepared and studied but, for most of them, their elaboration was more recent than that of catenanes or rotaxanes. Since the creation of interlocking ring molecules is so important in relation to the molecular machinery area, we will start with this aspect of our work. e second part will naturally be devoted to the dynamic properties of such systems and to the compounds for which motions can be directed in a controlled manner from the outside, i.e., molecular machines. We will restrict our discussion to a very limited number of examples which we con- sider particularly representative of the eld. CHEMICAL TOPOLOGY Generally speaking, chemical topology refers to molecules whose graph (i.e., their representation based on atoms and bonds) is non-planar [1–2]. A planar graph cannot be represented in a plane or on a sheet of paper without crossing points. In topology, the object can be distorted as much as one likes but its topo- logical properties are not modied as long as no cleavage occurs [3]. In other 111 112 The Nobel Prizes words, a circle and an ellipse are topologically identical.
