Your partner in science for end-to-end CRDMO solutions
Computational Chemistry
The Jubilant Biosys Computational Chemistry team excels in drug discovery design efforts in collaboration with the medicinal chemistry, biology and DMPK teams, by conducting molecular modeling studies – ligand-based drug design approaches (LBDD, pharmacophore and QSAR modeling), protein structure-based drug design (SBDD, homology modeling, docking and scoring), fragment-based drug design, chemoinformatic analysis and de novo design.
The team providing these computational chemistry services extensively utilizes in-house expertise in software development, curation and structural biology for driving molecular design.
Achievements
- The Jubilant modeling group is actively involved in over twenty integrated drug discovery projects and modeling collaborations
- Molecular modeling (structure-based drug design) techniques have been employed in the development of two clinical candidates (GPCR and kinase targets) and a backup candidate (protease target) for clinical trials
- Jubilant’s computational chemistry group played a critical role in the design and successful development of a multi-kinase inhibitor series for two different projects
