Eidogen-Sertanty to Partner with Accelrys on Kinase Database Offering
San Diego, CA (July 9, 2009) - Eidogen-Sertanty, Inc., a San Diego-based computational drug discovery solutions provider, today announced the expansion of its partnership with Accelrys, Inc. (NASDAQ: ACCL) to enhance the Kinase Knowledgebase through advanced visualization and computational tools.
As an ISV partner to Accelrys supporting its Pipeline Pilot™ and Discovery Studio® platforms, Eidogen-Sertanty will now offer its small molecule knowledgebase the Kinase Knowledgebase (KKB) through the Accelrys Kinome Viewer.
The Accelrys Kinome Viewer is a solution designed to facilitate small molecule drug discovery for kinase targets. Built upon Pipeline Pilot, the premier platform for the integration, analysis, and reporting of scientific data, the Kinome viewer enables a researcher to associate biological, chemical, and computational information on a single map. Activity and selectivity profiles of the compounds can be readily automated and visualized with information on target series, ligand binding data, and compound series - all within one customizable interface.
The Kinase Knowledgebase is Eidogen-Sertanty's database of structure-activity relationship (SAR) and chemical synthesis data focused on protein kinases. The KKB is released quarterly and currently contains over 402,000 data points curated from over 5,600 peer-reviewed journal articles and patents.
Offered on a variety of platforms, including Accelrys Pipeline Pilot, Daylight's Daycart, Symyx's-ISIS, and in ASCII formats, by extending access through the Kinome Viewer, the Kinase Knowledgebase can be mined more rapidly by larger numbers of researchers.
