Seminar title: "everything should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler” Albert Einstein
When and Where: 17:15, Lecture hall M.EG.180, CCB, Innrain 80-82
Host: Judith Rollinger

Abstract:
Nature produces many therapeutic agents. However, there is no value in plants, marine organisms or microorganisms producing compounds to treat human disease. We have explored the question does the recognition of the natural product by biosynthetic enzymes translate to recognition of the therapeutic target. Molecular modeling of flavonoid biosynthetic enzymes and protein kinases with a series of natural product kinase inhibitors led to the development of the concept of Protein Fold Topology (PFT). PFT describes cavity recognition points unrelated to protein fold similarity. Topology or spatial properties are preserved even though there is deformation of the protein elements that participate in the protein-ligand interactions. We observe helices or sheets as equivalent in providing the invariant topology for protein-ligand interaction and, as such, are seeking to find automated methods to interrogate these interactions. Some thoughts about using the simplest elements of molecular recognition in drug discovery will be presented.

Abstract: Manufacturers of IT related products such as an i-phone offer each half year an attractive, new model with specific innovative properties. What about the pharmaceuticl industry? Why do we need to wait 6-12 years after the discovery of a new chemical entity a new product on the market? Is it possible to accelerate this innovation cycle process? What type of innovations can be expected? Are innovations limited to new chemical entities, respectively new therapies? What type of innovations can be expected from manufacturers of generics? What is the role of the Process Analytical Technology (PAT) and Quality by Design (QbD) Initiaitive of the FDA and EMEA?
