Version Release: FELIX Interaction Searching and Binding Site Similarity

DesertSci is excited to announce the latest version of FELIX for Proasis4.

In a substantial upgrade to FELIX, a comprehensive new workflow provides real-time feedback as you fine tune your searches, resulting in better targeted design ideas.

The new FELIX UI has:

• improved work-flows for setting up searches
• extended functionality for the fine-tuning of queries including fuzzy searching
• improved algorithms for a faster overlay of hits.

The new FELIX tools allow for the creation of histograms of protein-ligand interaction distances, showing how the contact distances in a query structure compare with all other similar atom pair distances in the database.

FELIX binding site similarity searching within Proasis4, provides insight into potential off-targets for any development candidates.

DesertSci offers access to all api resources required to run FELIX remotely, enabling the development of sophisticated scripts and customised processes.

The latest release of FELIX provides researchers with new opportunities to more easily discover new chemical moieties able to bind to a protein via similar arrangements of close contacts with neighbouring binding site residues.
