E-Drug3D: 3D structure collections dedicated to drug repurposing and fragment-based drug design

Abstract

Motivation: In the drug discovery field, new uses for old drugs, selective optimization of side activities and fragment-based drug design (FBDD) have proved to be successful alternatives to high-throughput screening. e-Drug3D is a database of 3D chemical structures of drugs that provides several collections of ready-to-screen SD files of drugs and commercial drug fragments. They are natural inputs in studies dedicated to drug repurposing and FBDD. © The Author 2012. Published by Oxford University Press. All rights reserved.
