Recent advances in computational methods for drug design include developments in quantitative structure-activity relationship approaches as well as novel structure-based strategies. Many new protein structures of pharmaceutical interest have been solved, a number of which contain a bound inhibitor.
The addition of computer-aided drug design (CADD) technologies to the research and drug discovery approaches could lead to a reduction of up to 50% in the cost of drug design. Designing a drug is the process of finding or creating a molecule which has a specific activity on a biological organism. De
