Topics discussed include: drug design against complex systems (membrane proteins, cell surface receptors, epigenetic targets, and ribosomes); modulation of protein-protein interactions; the impact of small molecule structures in drug discovery and the application of concepts such as molecular geometry, conformation, and flexibility to drug design; methodologies for understanding and characterizing protein states and protein-ligand interactions during the drug design process; and monoclonal antibody therapies. These methods are illustrated through their application to problems of medical and biological significance, such as viral and bacterial infections, diabetes, autoimmune disease, and CNS diseases. As approaches to drug discovery have changed over time, so have the methodologies used to solve the varied, new, and difficult problems encountered in drug discovery. In recent years we have seen great progress in the fields of genetics, biology, chemistry, and medicine, but there are still many unmet medical needs, from bacterial infections to cancer to chronic maladies, that require novel, different, or better therapies. This work will be of interest to researchers and policy makers interested in the latest developments in drug design.NATO Science for Peace and Security Series A: Chemistry and Biology,1874-6489Proteins Medicinal chemistryMolecular biologyChemistry, Physical and theoreticalCrystallographyProtein-Ligand Interactionshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L14060Medicinal Chemistryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C28000Molecular Medicinehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B1700XTheoretical and Computational Chemistryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C25007Crystallography and Scattering Methodshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25056Proteins .Medicinal chemistry.Molecular biology.Chemistry, Physical and theoretical.Crystallography.Protein-Ligand Interactions.Medicinal Chemistry.Molecular Medicine.Theoretical and Computational Chemistry.Crystallography and Scattering Methods.530.41Scapin Giovannaedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtPatel Dishaedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtArnold Eddyedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910298273503321Multifaceted Roles of Crystallography in Modern Drug Discovery2524190UNINA
