Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

the thermodynamic basis for interaction of drugs with biomolecules; interaction forces involved in drug-biomolecule interaction (ionic-, dipol-dipol-, electronendonor/acceptor-, hydrophobic-, Van der Waals-interactions, hydrogen bonding) and methods to measure these forces (microcalorimetrie, ORCD, binding studies), determination of the structure of ligand-protein complexes (X-ray crystallography, NMR-spectroscopy), strategies for identification of lead-compounds (serendipity, transition state mimicry, high throughput screening, in silico screening), optimisation of lead compounds - rational drug design (statistical background, 2D- and 3D- structure activity relationship analysis, methods used in quantitative structure activity relationship studies), structure based design (docking, SAR by NMR, de novo design)

Assessment and permitted materials

Written exam, 10 questions, 100 points, 90 minutes

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

The lecture gives an overview on the theoretical background and the experimental biophysical methods for the rational design of new drugs. Main topics are the molecular basis of drug-receptor interaction, methods for measuring the corresponding interaction forces and the use of these data in computational drug design.

Examination topics

Language: German (material partly in English); powerpoint presentation, software demonstrations
