Executive Summary
Drug Discovery Tools; Bioinformatics. Structural Bioinformatics performs computational high-throughput screening with a 4-D approach to the generation of protein structures, that is, dynamic 3-D protein structures viewed through the fourth dimensionof time. It seeks to bridge the gap between novel gene-sequence data generated by genomic researchers and the 3-D structural information used by researchers in drug discovery.
