PathGennie Software for Fast-Tracking Drug Discovery/ ਫਾਸਟ-ਟਰੈਕਿੰਗ ਡਰੱਗ ਡਿਸਕਵਰੀ ਲਈ ਪਾਥਗੇਨੀ ਸੌਫਟਵੇਅਰ
The Ministry of Science and Technology has developed PathGennie, a new open-source computational software that significantly accelerates drug discovery by accurately simulating drug–protein unbinding.
The software helps predict drug residence time, a critical factor influencing drug efficacy and safety.
Developed by: Scientists at the S. N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences, Kolkata.
Aim and Significance
To overcome limitations of traditional molecular dynamics simulations, particularly in capturing slow and rare molecular transitions.
To provide physically accurate pathways for drug–protein interactions while significantly reducing computational cost and time.
