BEYOND THE BENCH: LBDD AND SBDD TRANSFORMING PHARMACY'S CHEMINFORMATICS APPROACH 💻 💊 📌 In the realm of cheminformatics, where computational tools intersect with pharmaceutical innovation, Ligand-Based Drug Design (LBDD) and Structure-Based Drug Design (SBDD) stand as pillars of modern drug discovery. LBDD meticulously examines the properties and interactions of known ligands, paving the way for the design of novel compounds with optimized pharmacological profiles. On the other hand, SBDD delves into the three-dimensional structures of target biomolecules, guiding the rational design of drugs tailored to specific molecular targets. Both approaches harness computational methods to expedite the drug discovery process, offering nuanced insights and precision in pharmaceutical research. This note explores the pivotal roles of LBDD and SBDD within cheminformatics, highlighting their transformative impact on advancing therapeutic interventions and addressing unmet medical needs. #pharmacy #healthtechrevolution #cheminformatics #computationalchemistry #science
