The power of linked open data — exploiting ligand-transporter interaction profiles

With the public availability of large integrated data sources such as the Open PHACTS Discovery Platform, retrieval of data sets for certain protein targets of interest measured under consistent assay conditions is no longer a time consuming process. Especially the use of workflow engines such as KNIME or Pipeline Pilot allows to submit complex queries and enables to simultaneously search for several targets. Data can then directly be used as input to e.g. ChemBioNavigator or SeeSAR for ligand- and structure-based studies. Within this webinar we will present case studies for the development of ligand-transporter interaction models and their use for selectivity profiling.

Tool of the Month - FlexS
June 30, 2026 10:59 CEST
This Summer, You Wear Molecule Alignment This July, see Similarity in 3D with FlexS as BioSolveIT’s Tool of the Month. In ligand-based drug discovery, the most interesting molecules are not always the ones that look similar on paper. Sometimes, the true connection only becomes visible in 3D. FlexS helps uncover...
