TrypInDB
TrypInDB aggregates curated data on small molecule inhibitors targeting Trypanosoma species to support drug-discovery research for trypanosomiasis.
Key Features:
- Extensive Data Collection: Compiles information on more than 14,000 small molecule inhibitors from over 700 published research articles.
- Comprehensive Information Sets: Provides for each inhibitor activity values, sources of inhibitors, enzyme targets, structural data, toxicity profiles, and literature references.
- Advanced Search Capabilities: Supports multi-field filtering, sub-structure searches, and comparisons with FDA-approved drugs for repurposing analyses.
- Data Export Options: Exports queried records and chemical structures in various formats.
- Integration with Related Databases: Integrated with LeishInDB to link inhibitor data across related parasitic-disease datasets.
Scientific Applications:
- Combination Therapy Exploration: Facilitates exploration of combination therapies to overcome drug resistance in Trypanosoma species.
- Drug Repurposing and Redesign: Enables repurposing or redesign of existing inhibitors to develop new therapeutic agents with reduced toxicity.
- Novel Therapeutics Discovery: Supports investigation of novel therapeutics through data-driven approaches.
Methodology:
Compilation of inhibitor data from over 700 published research articles; support for sub-structure searches and comparisons with FDA-approved drugs; export of records and structures in various formats; integration with LeishInDB.
