The Role of Bioinformatics in Identifying and Defining Potential Drug Targets.
The Second Annual Cutting Edge Approaches to Drug Design meeting, held March 13, 2002, in London, United Kingdom, was organized by the Royal Society of Chemistry's Molecular Modelling Group and the Structural Biology Group of the Biochemical Society. The emphasis was switched from last year's focus, the advances in structural biology and molecular modeling, to the role of bioinformatics in identifying and defining potential drug targets and the application of rational, computationally based techniques in library design and lead generation. Topics included the impact of bioinformatics on drug discovery, advances in chemical lead discovery and pharmacophore-based approaches to drug design. (c) 2002 Prous Science. All rights reserved.
