Scope: The focus of this course is the computer based prediction of suitable pharmaceutical drugs and the search for new potential targets in the human genome. Following topics are covered:
- molecular origin of typical diseases and the mode of action of drugs
- virtual substance libraries and query strategies
- in silico eADMET models and filters, bioavailability
- statistics and QSAR methods
- metabolism, toxicology and adverse side effects, also considering biomarkers
- polymorphism and susceptible genes
- identification of orthologous genes to derive new targets and model organisms
- current trends and strategies of drug design
Schein/Certification: Grade of certification (“Schein”) is based on the final exam only.
Condition for participation in the final exam: At least 50% of the points of the assignments.
Leistungspunkte/Credits: 5 (2 V + 1 Ü)
