The workshop focuses on the publication, curation, retrieval, and usage of kinetic data from the reaction kinetics database SABIO-RK and on the use of data in modeling. There will be experience reports from scientists who successfully used experimental data to formulate or verify biological hypotheses with the computer, and you will experience how experimental data can be used with computational models.

Here we share resources and best practices to develop a disease map for COVID-19. The project is progressing as a broad community-driven effort. We aim to establish a knowledge repository on virus-host interaction mechanisms specific to the SARS-CoV-2. The COVID-19 Disease Map is an assembly of molecular interaction diagrams established based on literature evidence.

The New Medicines for Trypanosomatidic Infections - NMTrypI project aimed at obtaining new candidate drugs against Trypanosomatidic infections with appropriate efficiency from the lead phase to the final preclinical phase that are more accessible to patients.

In the CoVIDD project, we aim at unravelling interactions of viral proteins with the cellular factors and the host pathways involved in SARS-CoV-2 infection by a combination of modern technologies, genomics, proteomics, structural biology, chemoinformatics and drug discovery. To effectively search for drugs that could modify viral replication we need to know what human proteins and viral proteins interact. Thus, a comprehensive virus-host protein interaction network will help us to identify the ...

Design, synthesis, computational studies and biological evaluation of antiparasitic dinitroaniline-ether phospholipid hybrids

Multidisciplinary development of selective anti-parasitic multi-target inhibitors of PTR1/DHFR based on a pteridine scaffold.

Induced fit docking studies of the dinitroaniline parent trifluraline and the newly designed dinitroaniline-etherphospholipid hybrids against different potential binding sites in monomeric and multimeric kinetoplastid tubulin receptors.

Sequence and electrostatic potential analyses to identify sites in tubulins that differ between dinitroaniline-sensitive and dinitroaniline-resistant species.

Computational prediction of physicochemical and advanced descriptors related to ADME-Tox and PAINS assessment. Potential correlations of the computed descriptors with experimentally determined anti-parasitic activities and correlations between experimentally determined levels of target protein inhibition (PTR1, DHFR) with the anti-parasitic activity were also studied.

Rigid-body docking studies and induced-fit docking studies of pteridine-based compounds to the target proteins TbPTR1, TbDHFR, LmPTR1, LmDHFR and the off-target hDHFR. For both PTR1 variants and human DHFR, conserved structural water sets were considered. Preparations of compound libraries and docking receptors are also covered.
