WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. \u2013 What if scientists could create more effective drugs to treat cancers and other diseases by better targeting specific sites of proteins in the body?<\/p>\n
That\u2019s the primary question researchers in the Purdue University<\/a> laboratory of Carol Post, a distinguished professor in Purdue\u2019s College of Pharmacy<\/a>, are trying to answer. They have developed software called NmrLineGuru<\/a> to move researchers closer to the answer. Their work is published in the Nov. 5 edition of Scientific Reports<\/a>.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe created software for fast  nuclear magnetic resonance lineshape simulation and analysis with multistate equilibrium binding models,\u201d said Chao Feng, a postdoctoral researcher in Post\u2019s lab<\/a>, who helped lead the research team. \u201cIt enables researchers and scientists to study much more specific information about proteins that are linked to serious diseases to help in the drug discovery process.\u201d<\/p>\n
Proteins can play a crucial role in many disease states such as the growth of cancer through dysregulation of their activity in the body. The graphical user interface software developed at Purdue can help researchers quickly understand, through simulated models, how certain proteins bind with compounds designed to control their activity in the body.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur work stems from a deep understanding of the need in the drug discovery field for better and faster solutions to understand how to affect biological functions of proteins in the body,\u201d Feng said<\/p>\n
The Purdue software supports the most common two-, three-, and four-state binding models used in the drug discovery industry to study protein interactions in the body. The software takes the information submitted by the user and creates specific model information about protein intermolecular associations.<\/p>\n
