Discovery Studio is a suite of software for simulating small molecule and macromolecule systems. It is developed and distributed by Dassault Systemes BIOVIA^[1] (formerly Accelrys).

The product suite has a strong academic collaboration programme,^[2] supporting scientific research and makes use of a number of software algorithms developed originally in the scientific community, including CHARMM,^[3] MODELLER,^[4] DELPHI,^[5] ZDOCK,^[6] DMol3^[7]^[8] and more.

Scope

Discovery Studio provides software applications covering the following areas:

Simulations
- Including Molecular Mechanics, Molecular Dynamics, Quantum Mechanics
- For molecular mechanics based simulations: Include implicit and explicit-based solvent models and membrane models
- Also includes the ability to perform hybrid QM/MM calculations
Ligand Design
- Including tools for enumerating molecular libraries and library optimization
Pharmacophore modeling
- Including creation, validation and virtual screening^[9]^[10]
Structure-based Design
- Including tools for fragment-based placement and refinement,^[11] receptor-ligand docking and pose refinement, de novo design
Macromolecule design and validation
Macromolecule engineering
- Specialist tools for protein-protein docking^[12]
- Specialist tools for Antibody design^[13] and optimization
- Specialist tools for membrane-bound proteins, including GPCRs
QSAR
- Covering methods such as multiple linear regression, partial least squares, recursive partitioning, Genetic Function approximation and 3D field-based QSAR
