Obtaining structural information about individual target proteins or complexes of target proteins with other molecules (e.g., proteins, nucleic acids, and small molecules) can provide insight into the structure-function relationship of the target protein and the underlying mechanism of interaction, which is significant for drug discovery and development. However, it is relatively difficult and time-consuming to determine the three-dimensional (3D) structure of biological macromolecules through experimental approaches such as X-ray crystallography, cryo-electron microscopy, or NMR spectroscopy. As a structure-based drug discovery CRO, Creative Biostructure not only provides experimental techniques to determine the structure, but also utilizes high-performance computing tools to predict the structural model of the target molecule, collect information about dynamic properties, and predict binding patterns and affinity between target proteins and other interacting molecules.
