Computational Resources for Drug Discovery (CRDD) is an important module of the in silico module of Open Source for Drug Discovery (OSDD). The CRDD web portal provides computer resources related to drug discovery, predicting inhibitors, and predicting the ADME-Tox properties of molecules on a single platform. It caters to researchers researching computer-aided drug design by providing computational resources, and hosting a discussion forum. One of the major objectives of CRDD is to promote open source software in the field of cheminformatics and pharmacoinformatics.

Features

Under CRDD, numerous resources related to computer-aided drug design have been collected and compiled. These resources are organized and presented on CRDD so users may locate resources from a single source.

Community contribution

CRDD developed a platform where the community may contribute to the process of drug discovery.

Indigenous development: software and web services

Beside collecting and compiling resources, CRDD members develop new software and web services. All services developed are free for academic use. The following are a few major tools developed at CRDD.

Development of databases

Software developed

Resources created

Web services for cheminformatics

CRDD developed an open source platform which allows users to predict inhibitors against novel M. Tuberculosis drug targets and other important properties of drug molecules like ADMET. Following are list of few servers.
