Ligand-based Virtual Screening (LBVS)
Ligand-based Virtual Screening (LBVS), also known as ligand similarity searching, involves computational strategies to identify molecules that are predicted to bind to drug targets. LBVS is utilized to identify and predict potential drugs that are most likely to bind specifically and efficiently to biologically integral molecules. This service is instrumental in the facilitation of faster, more efficient drug discovery and development processes. LBVS recognizes potential ligand molecules with the same behaviors or properties from numerous databases and focuses on the most prospective ones, ensuring value in R&D. CD ComputaBio's LBVS service stands out due to its range of potential applications, deep-rooted experience, and innovative approaches. We apply advanced algorithms and machine learning techniques to maximize the efficiency and accuracy of identifying promising drug candidates.
