Target Informatics Platform™ (TIP™)

Eidogen-Sertanty's Target Informatics Platform (TIP) is the world's first structural informatics system and knowledgebase that enables researchers with the ability to interrogate the druggable genome from a structural perspective. TIP amplifies the rapidly expanding body of experimental protein structure information and transforms structure-based drug discovery from a low-throughput, data scarce discipline into a high-throughput, data rich science. Designed to help bridge the knowledge gap between bioinformatics and cheminformatics, TIP supplies drug discovery researchers with a knowledgebase of information that is both distinct from and highly complementary to information furnished by existing bio- and cheminformatics platforms. TIP's seamless integration of structural data management technology with unique target-to-lead calculation and analysis capabilities enhances all stages of the discovery pipeline.

TIP's Value to Drug Discovery

  • Increase the Efficiency of Lead Discovery and Optimization
    • TIP enables chemists to derive an unprecedented level of relevant structural information that can be used to integrate rational and hypothesis-driven analyses into current and future lead discovery and optimization projects:
      • Quickly Identify Potential Leads using novel correlations between new annotated binding sites and sites with known ligands.
      • Improve Drug Selectivity with easy-to-use comparative binding site analysis and visualization tools.
      • Survey the Landscape of Target-Ligand Interactions across an entire family of drug targets, maximizing the knowledge that can be derived from structures with docked or co-crystallized ligands.

  • Discover New Opportunities for Validated Targets and Compounds
    • TIP furnishes reliable information about new opportunities and applications that can otherwise only be discovered via costly and time-consuming experimental efforts:
      • Discover and Evaluate Novel Binding Sites in previously validated and proven drug targets.
      • Develop Lead Hopping and Target Hopping strategies using pre-calculated similarities at the binding site, target-ligand interaction fingerprint, or ligand levels.

  • Increase the Overall Quality of the Target Portfolio
    • TIP supplies druggability and selectivity information to support highly informed target selection and prioritization decisions:
      • Quickly Understand Target Druggability based on a detailed annotation of available small molecule binding sites and understanding of gene family-wide similarity for targets of interest.
      • Derive Maximum Value from the Distribution of Target Knowledge utilizing TIP's centralized system for managing all structure, binding site annotation, selectivity, and co-crystallized and docked ligand interactions for all targets of interest, across all members of a project team.
