Software:Discovery Studio

From HandWiki

Discovery Studio is a suite of software for simulating small molecule and macromolecule systems. It is developed and distributed by Dassault Systèmes BIOVIA[1] (formerly Accelrys).

The product suite has a strong academic collaboration programme,[2] supporting scientific research and makes use of a number of software algorithms developed originally in the scientific community, including CHARMM,[3] MODELLER,[4] DELPHI,[5] ZDOCK,[6] DMol3[7][8] and more.

Scope

Discovery Studio provides software applications covering the following areas:

  • Simulations
    • Including Molecular Mechanics, Molecular Dynamics, Quantum Mechanics
    • For molecular mechanics based simulations: Include implicit and explicit-based solvent models and membrane models
    • Also includes the ability to perform hybrid QM/MM calculations
  • Ligand Design
  • Pharmacophore modeling
  • Structure-based Design
    • Including tools for fragment-based placement and refinement,[11] receptor-ligand docking and pose refinement, de novo design
  • Macromolecule design and validation
  • Macromolecule engineering
  • QSAR
    • Covering methods such as multiple linear regression, partial least squares, recursive partitioning, Genetic Function approximation and 3D field-based QSAR
  • ADME
  • Predictive toxicity
