Target Exploration Module
Target Exploration involves the identification and validation of biological targets that are associated with an illness. Identifying a molecular target involved in a given disease (usually a protein) can help researchers design a more effective drug for that disease. Subsequent target validation confirms whether modulating that target has the potential to provide a therapeutic benefit. Computational methods used in target exploration include homology modeling, binding site identification, and binding site comparison.
OpenEye solutions in the Target Exploration Module are Target X Floes, Structural Biology Floes, and AI Fold Floes.
