title = "Geometric manipulation of flexible ligands",
abstract = "In recent years an effort has been made to supplement traditional methods for drug discovery by computer-assisted “structure-based design.” The structure-based approach involves (among other issues) reasoning about the geometry of drug molecules (or ligands) and about the different spatial conformations that these molecules can attain. This is a preliminary report on a set of tools that we are devising to assist the chemist in the drug design process. We describe our work on the following three topics: (i) geometric data structures for representing and manipulating molecules; (ii) conformational analysis—searching for low- energy conformations; and (iii) pharmacophore identification—searching for common features among different ligands that exhibit similar activity.",
