Shop

Shop is extremely useful to guide the Scaffold Hopping procedure during the Drug Discovery process [ J. Chem. Inf. Comput. Sci. 45, 1313-1323 (2005)].

Scaffold Hopping is the methodology that substitutes one part of a molecule with another one, retaining their pharmacophoric interaction points. Shop is doing much more. In a fully integrated approach, it maintains 3D interaction capabilities and considers, at the same time, the synthetic feasibility and the ADME profiles of the potential candidates.

The method proposed in Shop is simple and ready to use and based on a client/server application. The User can generate scaffold databases that are searchable using geometric constraints, interaction pattern based on GRID force field and shape criteria. The results are directly aligned on top of the query scaffold for an easy understanding and evaluation of the new chemicals.

A sample database has been built^* based on the scaffolds used in combinatorial chemistry and collected in the comprehensive surveys of combinatorial library synthesis (see references below). The user can download this database from Lead Molecular Design and decompress it on the ShopDir/databases folder. Then re-start the server and when the user is connected from the client this database will be available.
