AlphaFold
DeepMind
These exquisite, intricate machines are proteins. They underpin not just the biological processes in your body but every biological process in every living thing. They’re the building blocks of life. Currently, there are around 100 million known distinct proteins, with many more found every year. Each one has a unique 3D shape that determines how it works and what it does. But figuring out the exact structure of a protein remains an expensive and often time-consuming process, meaning we only know the exact 3D structure of a tiny fraction of the proteins known to science. Finding a way to close this rapidly expanding gap and predict the structure of millions of unknown proteins could not only help us tackle disease and more quickly find new medicines but perhaps also unlock the mysteries of how life itself works. -

When two or more ligand-protein complexes are sufficiently similar, LigPlot+ can automatically display their interaction diagrams either superposed or side by side. Any conserved interactions are highlighted. The LigPlot+ suite also now includes an update of the original DIMPLOT program for plotting protein-protein or domain-domain interactions. Users can flexibly select the interface of interest and DIMPLOT will then generate a diagram showing the residue-residue interactions across the interface. To assist in interpretation, the residues in one of the interfaces can be optionally displayed in sequence order. -

Bruker Drug Discovery
Bruker
Bringing a new drug into the market, from the first step to the final market introduction, is a time-consuming, highly regulated, and expensive process, which can take a decade or more. Final success crucially depends on the early availability of accurate analytical results, fast enough for taking the right decisions at the beginning of the development and minimizing late attrition rates. Today’s drug development is mainly based on a rational approach where typically establishing the biological target to focus on is the first key step. This target identification requires a deep understanding of the candidates´ properties to identify the most promising ones as quickly and reliable as possible. Once a biological target has been established, finding the most promising lead molecules is often seen as the next challenge. Typically, lead discovery is the identification of potential drug candidates – either small organic molecules or biologic assemblies with therapeutic potential. -
