The growing incidence of diseases has created a dire need for proper medications, which are
readily available, potent and, cost-effective. To meet up this demand, the discovery of novel drug
molecules that would be clinically effective and safe is need of the hour. Traditionally, drug
discovery requires many years of development and a huge expenditure. However, using modern
computational approaches a drug molecule can be identified by investing less time at reduced cost
of discovery. It facilitates scientists to find potent and safe therapeutic molecules in more rational
way as compared to conventional approaches. In computational drug discovery, various tools,
methods/techniques, and software are used in designing better drug molecules with predictive
modeling and biophysical studies ranging from physicochemical/ADMET assessments, under-
standing the molecular mechanisms and toxicity screening. The computational approaches and
methods in drug designing include structure-based methods, ligand-based methods, virtual
screening, predictive analytics, informatics tools, artificial intelligence (AI) approaches, machine
learning methods, and multi-database methods.
This book mainly delves into recent advances in drug designing tools and techniques and their
applications pertaining to the discovery of novel therapeutic molecules. It includes armamentar-
ium of latest approaches and advanced methodologies available for drug design and their practical
applications in diverse cutting-edge therapeutic areas including cancer, multidrug-resistant
bacterial infections, neurodegenerative disorders, inflammatory diseases, and viral infections.
It comprises twenty-three chapters in unique topics contributed from experts all around the globe.
Some of the key features of the book are as follows:
● Computer-assisted methods and tools for structure- and ligand-based drug design, virtual screen-
ing and lead discovery, artificial intelligence and machine learning approaches for drug design
and ADMET and physicochemical assessments
● In silico and pharmacophore modeling, fragment-based design, de novo drug design and scaffold
hopping, network-based methods and drug discovery
● Rational design of natural products, peptides, enzyme inhibitors, drugs for neurodegenerative
disorders, anti-inflammatory therapeutics, antibacterials for multidrug-resistant infections, and
antiviral and anticancer therapeutics
The content of the book has been crafted in such a way that it would serve as useful resource
materials for postgraduate and doctoral courses in multidisciplinary academic and/or research
disciplines such as Pharmaceutical Sciences, Medicinal Chemistry, Pharmacology, Biomedical
Sciences, Biochemistry, Microbiology, Biotechnology, Drug Discovery, Computational Drug
Design, and Allied Sciences. This book will be particularly useful to drug developers, pharmaceutical
scientists (R&D), discovery scientists, biomedical scientists, healthcare professionals, biochemists,

1.1 Introduction

1.1.1 What Is Molecular Modeling?

Molecular modeling is at the cutting edge of scientific innovation and discovery, providing a
paradigm-shifting method for comprehending the microscopic world of atoms and molecules.
Researchers in various disciplines, including chemistry, biology, materials science, and pharmacology,
are given newfound strength by this computational technique that enables them to precisely model,
examine, and forecast the behavior of molecules and molecular systems. At its core, molecular mode-
ling uses computers’ computational capacity to reveal the nanoscale world’s well-kept secrets, providing
knowledge that is essential for expanding our understanding of the natural world and fostering techno-
logical advancements [1]. The attraction of molecular modeling is its capacity to connect theory and
experiment. It offers a comprehensive understanding to the researchers to examine the dynamics of
large molecular assemblies, the creation of chemical bonds, and the delicate description of atoms.
Researchers can now examine issues that are frequently difficult, expensive, or even impractical to solve
using only conventional experimental methods but much easier by this computational playground [2].
The significance of molecular modeling is most notable in drug development, where it has com-
pletely changed how pharmaceutical molecules are created and optimized. Researchers can
quickly screen and prioritize prospective treatments by modeling the interactions between drug
candidates and their target proteins, considerably speeding up the drug development process. This
has contributed to personalized medicine, in which treatments are matched to specific genetic
profiles as well as the development of novel therapeutics. The design of novel materials with spe-
cific features is aided in materials research by molecular modeling. Computational modeling
directs the development of materials for various applications, from electronics to aerospace,
whether it is optimizing the structure of innovative polymers, investigating the behavior of sophis-
ticated composites, or comprehending the properties of nanomaterials [3, 4].
Beyond these areas, molecular modeling provides a flexible tool for understanding chemical
processes, researching the principles of protein folding, and evaluating environmental effects. It is
essential to education because it aids in the visualization of intricate molecular relationships and

structures, which deepens comprehension of the underlying ideas that control the natural world.
By enabling researchers to solve the riddles of molecules and molecular systems, molecular mod-
eling acts as a light of scientific discovery in this era of computational inquiry, advancing us to new
horizons of knowledge and innovation [5].

1.1.2 Software Used for Molecular Modeling

In the discipline of molecular modeling, software is crucial because it allows researchers to carry
out intricate simulations, see molecular structures, and quickly process data. There are numerous
software programs accessible, each suited to particular modeling methodologies and study
goals [6]. These famous applications are frequently used for molecular modeling.
1.1.2.1 Schrodinger
For molecular modeling and drug development, Schrodinger provides a complete range of soft-
ware tools. A user-friendly interface is offered by Maestro, one of its flagship products, for various
modeling activities, including molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, virtual screening, and
structure-based drug creation [7].
1.1.2.2 GROMACS
GROMACS is a potent simulation tool for MD that is typically employed to examine the behavior
of biomolecules like proteins and lipids. It is a well-liked option in both academia and business
because of its speed and scalability [8].

Amber is a second extensively used program for modeling MD, with a significant emphasis on
biomolecular systems. It is appropriate for various research applications since it has tools for mod-
eling proteins, nucleic acids, and tiny compounds [9].
1.1.2.4 CHARMM
Known for its prowess in simulating intricate biomolecular systems and researching protein–
ligand interactions, CHARMM (Chemistry at HARvard Molecular Mechanics) is a leading name
in the field. Drug discovery and structural biology both make substantial use of it [10].
1.1.2.5 AutoDock
A well-liked molecular docking program, AutoDock, forecasts how tiny compounds will interact
with protein receptors. It is useful for identifying prospective medication candidates during virtual
screening [11].
1.1.2.6 VMD
The versatile molecular visualization program VMD (visual molecular dynamics) is used to exam-
ine and display molecular structures, trajectories, and data from numerous simulation programs.
It is especially helpful for producing gorgeous molecular graphics [12].
1.1.2.7 PyMOL
PyMOL is a popular molecular visualization program that provides an easy-to-use interface for
developing professional-grade 3D molecular images and animations. It is helpful for both aca-
demic and research endeavors [13].
