Informatie
Proteros is a leading drug discovery service company with its headquarters in Munich, Germany, providing services in the area of structural biology (protein x-ray crystallography), biophysical screening, compound profiling and integrated fragment-based lead discovery.
(Senior) Computational Chemist (m/f)
Responsibilities
- Interpretation of crystallographic and thermodynamic data in order to propose molecular binding geometries of optimized lead candidates, based on a profound understanding of structural biology and protein-ligand interactions Pharmacophore searches, appropriate filtering and virtual screening (molecular docking) of compound libraries for identification of novel leads, Optimization/Minimization of computer-generated docking solutions
- Proactive support of all lead optimization campaigns, ranking of candidates for chemical synthesis in structure-guided lead optimization with particular focus on evolution of fragments to lead-like ligands HTS analysis, hierarchical clustering of Screening Hits and detection of emerging SAR Library design, library profiling and cheminformatic analysis of inhouse and third-party libraries
- Application of QSAR methods for development of predictive models
- Evaluation of dynamic properties of protein-ligand complexes by molecular dynamics simulations and calculation of Binding Free Energies
- Construction of reliable homology models for targets with only limited structural knowledge
- Support of BD and customer acquisition activities by providing adequate visual material
Profile
- University degree or similar in Chemistry/ Pharmacy/Biology/ Life Sciences
- PhD degree in the field of Molecular Modeling and Computational Chemistry
- Preference for 5-7 years experience in a similar role in an industrial environment
- Profound understanding of protein-ligand-interactions and binding thermodynamics
- Effective written and oral presentation and communication skills in German and English
- Ability to work in an interdisciplinary drug discovery team with Medicinal Chemists, High Throughput Screening Experts and Crystallographers. Experience in state of the art software packages for molecular modeling
