Chembiotek's computation group has developed proprietary algorithms to address a variety of pharmaceutical challenges. For example, programs have been developed for virtual library generation, screening of libraries for lead-like properties and for the docking of small molecules with biological macromolecules. Several pharmaceutically relevant proteins have been docked with known drugs and then our proprietarty algorithms have generated new pharmacophores with better affinity. In-house computational tools for predicting ADME related properties of compounds in a high throughput fashion have also been developed. The group has deep expertise in the understanding and prediction of biomolecular recognition based on structures and interactions and is addressing the challenging problem of creating designer peptides and proteins with specific properties.
