In Silico Prediction of Permeability Coefficients.

In silico simulations of biological systems are of the significant importance to obtain insights on specific processes that experimental protocols have difficulty to elucidate. More particularly, and to ensure that a given molecule is able to reach its cellular target, the development of computational methods able to quickly estimate the cellular permeabilities for small molecules can become an important tool in the early stages of drug development. Herein, a computational protocol for predicting permeability coefficients, concerning both membranes and proteins, is presented and discussed.
