The company
Creation: September 2012. Two PhD, > 15 years of activity in this field, both at
the academic and industrial sides.
Objective: application of computational methods to the prediction of physico-
chemical and/or biological properties of chemicals.
Main work area: "Drug Discovery".
Other areas: nutraceuticals, pesticides, nanomaterials, REACH legislation.
Dissemination: > 70 peer reviewed papers in scientific journals, 7 chapters in
specialized books, > 40 presentations in national/international scientific
conferences.

In silico success in DD
Norfloxacin, the first fluoroquinolone antibiotic (Koga et al., J. Med. Chem., 1980), QSAR
models developed to predict the best substituents.
Losartan, the first non-peptide oral angiotensin II antagonist (Duncia et al., J. Med. Chem.,
1990), alignment with a solution structure of angiotensin II.
5-HT1B/1D agonist Zolmitriptan, indicated for migraine (Glen et al., J. Med. Chem. 1995), based
on a pharmacophore approach & ADME optimised by QSAR.
Dorzolamide, a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor used to treat glaucoma (Greer et al., J. Med.
Chem., 1994), ab initio calculations suggested the best conformation.
Antivirals such as Zanamivir (first neuraminidase inhibitor for tratment of influenza) (M.
von Itzstein et al., Nature, 1993) or Amprenavir (HIV-1 protease inhibitor) (Kim et al., J. Amer. Chem.
Soc., 1995).
Others: H2-receptor antagonist Cimetidine, Probenecid, many of the atypical
antipsychotics, selective COX-2 inhibitors NSAIDs, selective serotonin reuptake
inhibitors (antidepressants), etc.

Computational chemistry advantages
Demonstrated good predictivity when selecting/optimizing new chemical
entities.
Great saving of time, resources and money.
Easy and rapid applicability of the models to new structures or molecular
collections.
Limitations on animal testing (3Rs), according to European legislation.
8
QSAR/QSPR
We are particularly featured for our expertise in the development of
mathematical predictive models of structure-activity relationships (QSAR) or
structure-property relationships (QSPR).
These computational models are of great interest when you have
activity/property data for a number of compounds and the structure of the
therapeutic target is unknown.
Our company is possibly the only one in Spain providing currently a
specific and specialized service in the QSAR field.
