  • ACPYPE - Antechamber Python Parser Interface Alan W Sousa Da Silva1,2,3* and Wim F Vranken2,4
    da Silva and Vranken BMC Research Notes 2012, 5:367 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1756-0500/5/367 TECHNICAL NOTE Open Access ACPYPE - AnteChamber PYthon Parser interfacE Alan W Sousa da Silva1,2,3* and Wim F Vranken2,4 Abstract Background: ACPYPE (or AnteChamber PYthon Parser interfacE) is a wrapper script around the ANTECHAMBER software that simplifies the generation of small molecule topologies and parameters for a variety of molecular dynamics programmes like GROMACS, CHARMM and CNS. It is written in the Python programming language and was developed as a tool for interfacing with other Python based applications such as the CCPN software suite (for NMR data analysis) and ARIA (for structure calculations from NMR data). ACPYPE is open source code, under GNU GPL v3, and is available as a stand-alone application at http://www.ccpn.ac.uk/acpype and as a web portal application at http://webapps.ccpn.ac.uk/acpype. Findings: We verified the topologies generated by ACPYPE in three ways: by comparing with default AMBER topologies for standard amino acids; by generating and verifying topologies for a large set of ligands from the PDB; and by recalculating the structures for 5 protein–ligand complexes from the PDB. Conclusions: ACPYPE is a tool that simplifies the automatic generation of topology and parameters in different formats for different molecular mechanics programmes, including calculation of partial charges, while being object oriented for integration with other applications. Keywords: MD, GROMACS, AMBER, CNS, ANTECHAMBER, NMR, Ligand, Topology Findings Background Here we introduce ACPYPE, a tool based on Molecular Mechanics (MM) has evolved substantially ANTECHAMBER [1] for generating automatic topolo- over the last decades, not only because of major advances gies and parameters in different formats for different in computational power, but also due to more accurate molecular mechanics programmes, including calcula- and diverse force field descriptions.

Juli 2007 Dekan: Prof. Dr. Thorsten Herfet Mitglieder des Prüfungsausschusses: Prof. Dr. Philipp Slusallek Prof. Dr. Hans-Peter Lenhof Prof. Dr. Oliver Kohlbacher Dr. Dirk Neumann Acknowledgments The work on this thesis was carried out during the years 2002-2007 at the Center for Bioinformatics in the group of Prof. Dr. Hans-Peter Lenhof who also was the supervisor of the thesis. With his deeply interesting lecture on bioinformatics, Prof. Dr. Hans-Peter Lenhof kindled my interest in this field and gave me the freedom to do research in those areas that fascinated me most. The implementation of BALLView would have been unthinkable without the help of all the people who contributed code and ideas. In particular, I want to thank Prof. Dr. Oliver Kohlbacher for his splendid work on the BALL library, on which this thesis is based on. Furthermore, Prof. Kohlbacher had at any time an open ear for my questions. Next I want to thank Dr. Andreas Hildebrandt, who had good advices for the majority of problems that I was confronted with. In addition he contributed code for database access, field line calculations, spline points calculations, 2D depiction of molecules, and for the docking in- terface. Heiko Klein wrote the precursor of the VIEW library. Anne Dehof implemented the peptide builder, the secondary structure assignment, and a first version of the editing mo- de.

Bevan, Chair Josep Bassaganya-Riera Jill Sible Liqing Zhang June 11, 2013 Blacksburg, VA Keywords: Virtual screening, PPARγ, Drug discovery, Molecular docking, Pharmacophore screening, Molecular dynamics Copyright 2013, Stephanie Nicole Lewis Refinement of the Docking Component of Virtual Screening for PPARγ Therapeutics Using Pharmacophore Analysis and Molecular Dynamics Stephanie Nicole Lewis ABSTRACT Exploration of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARγ) as a drug target holds applications for treating a wide variety of chronic inflammation-related diseases. Type 2 diabetes (T2D), which is a metabolic disease influenced by chronic inflammation, is quickly reaching epidemic proportions. Although some treatments are available to control T2D, more efficacious compounds with fewer side effects are in great demand. Drugs targeting PPARγ typically are compounds that function as agonists toward this receptor, which means they bind to and activate the protein. Identifying compounds that bind to PPARγ (i.e. binders) using computational docking methods has proven difficult given the large binding cavity of the protein, which yields a large target area and variations in ligand positions within the binding site. We applied a combined computational and experimental concept for characterizing PPARγ and identifying binders. The goal was to establish a time- and cost-effective way to screen a large, diverse compound database potentially containing natural and synthetic compounds for PPARγ agonists that are more efficacious and safer than currently available T2D treatments.

  • Visualization of Macromolecular Structures

These data are increasingly of interest to a broader community of life scientists, not just structural experts. Visualization is a primary means for accessing and using these data, yet visualization is also a stumbling block that prevents many life scientists from benefiting from three-dimensional structural data. In this review, we focus on key biological questions where visualizing three-dimensional structures can provide insight and describe available methods and tools.

Over the past 6 months, SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-19, has already infected over 11.6 million (25% located in United States) and killed more than 540K people around the world. As we face one of the most challenging times in our recent history, there is an urgent need to identify drug candidates that can attack SARS-CoV-2 on multiple fronts.
