Adsorption of enzymes on solid surfaces may lead to conformational changes that reduce their catalytic conversion activity and are thus detrimental to the efficiency of biotechnology or biosensing applications. This work is a joint theoretical and expe... Read More about Atomistic details of chymotrypsin conformational changes upon adsorption on silica.

Active search for computer-aided drug design (2018)
Journal Article
Oglic, D., Oatley, S. A., Macdonald, S. J., McInally, T., Garnett, R., Hirst, J. D., & Gärtner, T. (in press). Active search for computer-aided drug design. Molecular Informatics, 37, https://doi.org/10.1002/minf.201700130

We consider lead discovery as active search in a space of labelled graphs. In particular, we extend our recent data-driven adaptive Markov chain approach, and evaluate it on a focused drug design problem, where we search for an antagonist of an av in...
