What's New in SeeSAR 13 'Midas'?

Enter the next stage of modern and sophisticated drug discovery with SeeSAR ‘Midas’. Version 13 was developed to be used as a powerful but user-friendly tool for the generation of goal-oriented results - with a single click!
The novel ideation engine is called ‘MedChemesis’: a ligand mutation tool to create a series of close analogs to a query compound based on common medicinal chemistry reactions. MedChemesis can be accessed in the Inspirator Mode to sample the proximal chemical space around a compound for promising modifications (e.g., bioisosteric replacement of a carboxylic acid for a tetrazole group, introduction of a halogen or methyl group to increase potency, or replacement of a carbon for a nitrogen atom inside an aromatic ring system). With a total of 290 most common medicinal chemistry transformations, MedChemesis explores a plethora of analogs guided by binding site topology in the most efficient way - without the need of full enumeration of all possibilities.
Alongside several quality-of-life software improvements, another great feature has been added to augment the on-screen design experience: Users can now visualize the target/protein surface. Several coloring and visualization options (based on lipophilicity, chain colors, opaque/transparent, …) are available to create meaningful figures based on your needs. The features does not end there: All 3D surface representations can be exported via SeeSAR glb file export to be used in presentations to visually transfer the core messages of your science!
