Description-en: preparation of in silico drug screening projects
The field of computational biology is all about modeling
physiochemical entities. Structural biology is about how
those entities look in 3D and behave. Assume a specific
behaviour (and only this) of a drug can be changed in a
defined way.
.
Some good part of the characterisation of promising
drug-like compounds for their interaction with a larger protein
can be done on computers. This package helps with getting
collections of small ligands prepared to be fitted against
a particular protein of known structure. That docking itself
is then to be performed by autodock or autodock-vina.
.
Raccoon may not find the drug, but it may well find a
lead to it. To have this package with Debian shall help
smaller biochemistry labs and grants an opportunity for the
general public to educate itself and/or actively join in to
help the world .... just a bit.
