The purpose of the laboratory is research activity in the field of biomodeling and processes taking place in biomedical molecular systems.
The laboratory solves the following research tasks:
- in silico study of physico-chemical and pharmacokinetic parameters of compounds (ADME parameters);
- primary in silico assessment of toxicity of compounds;
- conducting a systematic search to identify and identify the complementarity of binding sites for the ligand-target system. Virtual screening of ligands based on pharmacophore;
- design and modification of bioactive compounds based on pharmacophore using chemoinformatics methods (design of medicinal compounds);
- prediction, determination and validation of molecular targets (proteins and nucleic acids) for the studied classes of compounds (Virtual target screening);
- conformational search for the best and reliable ligand orientation during ligand-target complexation (Molecular docking);
- in silico simulation of ligand-target system interactions in real time taking into account parameters close to real (Molecular dynamics);
- prediction of binding selectivity and the spectrum of action of ligands of various nature based on the analysis of virtual interactions (statistical processing of biological information).
- Neurodegenerative diseases of humans and animals (Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's);
- Metabolic diseases of humans and animals (pathogenesis of diabetes mellitus and search for antidiabetic agents of various nature;
- In silico development and evaluation of anticonvulsant bioactive compounds;
- Chemoinformatics of antitumor compounds;
- Databases of bioactive compounds.
