OSDD-
OPEN SOURCE DRUG DISCOVERY
• OSDDChem is the web interface for large scale
synthesis of diverse chemical compounds to
screen them against TB and Malaria.
CRDD

• CRDD (Computational Resources for Drug Discovery) is an important


module of the in silico module of OSDD. The CRDD web portal
provides computer resources related to drug discovery on a single
platform. Following are major features of CRDD:
• CRDD provides computational resources for researchers in the field
of computer-aided drug design.
• CRDD allows users to discuss their problem with other members.
• CRDD gives equal opportunity to those willing to solve these
problems.
• CRDD Wiki maintain wikipedia related to drug discovery.
• Contributors may host their database or web server on CRDD portal.
Potential Drug Targets
• There are certain class of proteins which are commonly used
as drug targets like G-protein coupled receptors, nuclear
receptors, kinases. Servers integrated at CRDD
Computational Resources for Protein Structure prediction

• One of the key challenges in protein science is


determining three dimensional structure from
amino acid sequence. List of important tools
for the prediction of protein structure is given
below.
• Servers integrated at CRDD
