Hit identification
Ed, the chemist, has a new project. He needs new chemical starting points that inhibit his target. Ed runs a virtual screen at mcule.com and orders the best hits. He identifies a new hit that inhibits his target and is suitable for further optimization.
Hit expansion
After identifying a new hit, Ed searches for close analogs in the mcule database. He orders the most interesting analogs and sends them to the pharmacologists. Based on the results, he can establish a structure-activity relationship.
Lead optimization
Ed has several interesting ideas to improve the affinity and physicochemical properties of his compound. He uses 1-Click Docking, Property Calculator and Toxicity Checker to find the best ideas. He manages to lower molecular mass and logP, and improve the docking score.
