-You can identify new inhibitors/modulators of your target (receptor, enzyme, nucleid acid, etc.) by searching the Mcule database. In Mcule, you can easily build **[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_screening|virtual screening]]** workflows by putting together molecular modeling tools like LEGO bricks. Virtual screening workflows are a set of filters and calculations. Filters can eliminate compounds that unlikely binds your target or have other unwanted properties and calculations can rank order the best candidates for example by their estimated binding affinity. You can filter the whole mcule database (over 5 million compounds) with several tools until you select the most promising compounds (10-1000). Additionally, you can order the best hits by just a few clicks.

-====== Ligand-based virtual screening ======
+**[[usecases|Go back to use cases »]]**
-Ligand-based virtual screening does not utilize the 3D structure of the target when searching for new hits. Instead, it is based on the structure of a reference ligand (endogenous ligand, known inhibitor, etc.) that binds to a target and/or exhibits some beneficial effect. In ligand-based virtual screening, compounds are typically ranked based on the similarity to the reference ligand (query).
