Unlock structure-based drug design of challenging projects
For many biological targets of interest to pharma such as membrane proteins, structural information is difficult to obtain. The large size, complexity, and/or flexibility of these targets make them unsuitable for traditional structure determination techniques such as crystallography. Without structural insights to inform your drug design, you potentially miss out on discovering more effective drug candidates.
