Research: DRUG-LOGP-PREDICTION Folding Project #12472

Project #12472 overview

Project Summary AI Beta

This project looks at using computer simulations to predict how well drugs dissolve in the body. It tests different simulation methods and sees if the chosen model affects the results. This is important because a drug's ability to dissolve determines how well it works.

Official Project Description

A key challenge in computational drug discovery is developing and testing methods to predict experimental partition coefficients for the relative solubility of organic molecules in aqueous vs.

non-polar media.

The logarithm of the partition coeffient, logP, is an important predictor of lipophilicity, which dictates the bioavailability of drugs.

This CPU project is testing expanded-ensemble (EE) simulations as a method for the calculation of logP and seeing if forcefield selection effects these calculations..
