Beyond on overview of physics and ML-based methods applied to antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) the paper presents calculations showing how MD simulations and the SILCS technology may be used to facilitate ADC development using utilities available from @silcsbio
A new Perspective by Anastasia Croitoru, Asuka Orr, and @alex_mackerell discusses how computational methods can be used to facilitate the early-stage development and optimization of antibody-drug conjugates nature.com/articles/s41589-0…

Awesome #BPS2024 poster presentation by Kyle Rouen at our lab @UCD_Physiology and @UCD_BPH on our collaborative work with @alex_mackerell, @clancyatheart and @vyy_sf on using SILCS @silcsbio software to predict drug cardiac arrhythmia risks.

We've just submitted a manuscript on an extension of the #CHARMM additive force field combined with #CGenFF to 333 non-standard amino acids. Collaboration with Alexey Aleksandrov and @CharmmGui That should help with the FF side of things.
What's the state of the art these days for constructing rotamer libraries for nonstandard amino acids? I used to use a method based on doi.org/10.1039/c0cp01865a, but it was very hands-on, involving fitting forcefield terms. Anything both accurate and mostly automated?

Congratulations to @shaelynnlahey and @zeldery2 for their new paper on simulating nasty torsion PESs. The ANI neural network potentials perform very well and can be to simulate small molecule ligands in situ. #openff is off to a great start too. pubs.acs.org/doi/pdf/10.1021…

Our portfolio company Rasio Therapeutics, associated with recent @NFCR scientist Curt Civin of @UMmedschool and with proprietary @silcsbio software, has identified several lead hits for multiple immuno-oncology targets. aim-hiaccelerator.org/rasio-… #JPM2021
Happy to see the success of #SEED in conjunction with #CGenFF and #CHARMM in identifying fragment binding sites on a number of proteins.

#SILCS approach to identification of fragment and drug-like molecule binding sites (SILCS-Hotspots) out in BBA. Importance of consideration of adjacent Hotspots versus just the most favorable is shown. #silcsbio doi.org/10.1016/j.bbagen.202…

SILCS FragMap patterns from unglycosylated/glycosylated protein (left/right). Some interesting local changes. See quite a bit of water (purple) recruitment around the glycan.
