Abstract |
Tremendous amount of chemical and biological data are being generated by various high-throughput biotechnologies that could facilitate modern drug discovery. However, lack of integration makes it very challenging for individual scientists to access and understand all the data related to a specific protein of interest. To overcome this challenge, we developed PyMine, a PyMOL plugin that retrieves chemical, structural, pathway and other related biological data of a receptor and small molecules from a variety of high-quality databases and presents them in a graphic and uniformed way. Developed as an interactive and user-friendly tool, PyMine can be used as a central data-hub for users to access and visualize multiple types of data and to generate new ideas intuitively for structure-based molecule design. |
