Omega TK

Omega TK offers the same features as the OMEGA application for conformer generation.

Omega TK was designed for use with the large libraries required for computer-aided drug design. It generates multi-conformer structure databases with high speed and reliability.

Omega TK performs rapid conformational expansion of drug-like molecules, yielding a throughput of hundreds of thousands of compounds per day per processor.

Please refer to the OMEGA product page for additional details.

Omega toolkit.
OMEGA utilizes 2 different methods for accurate conformation generation: torsion driving and distance geometry.

Modeling

The Modeling suite of toolkits provides the core functionality underlying OpenEye's defining principle that shape & electrostatics are the two fundamental descriptors determining intermolecular interactions. Many of the toolkits in the Modeling suite are directly associated with specific OpenEye applications and can, therefore, be used to create new or extend existing functionality associated with those applications.

  • OEChem TK Core chemistry handling and representation as well as molecule file I/O
  • FastROCS™ TK Real-time shape similarity for virtual screening, lead hopping & shape clustering
  • OEDocking TK Molecular docking and scoring
  • Omega TK Conformer generation
  • Shape TK 3D shape description, optimization, and overlap
  • SiteHopper TK Rapid comparison of protein binding sites
  • Spicoli TK Surface generation, manipulation, and interrogation
  • Spruce TK Protein preparation and modeling
  • Szybki TK Force field based focused optimization and entropy estimations

Cheminformatics

The Cheminformatics suite of toolkits provides the core foundation upon which all the OpenEye applications and remaining toolkits are built.

  • OEChem TK Core chemistry handling and representation as well as molecule file I/O
  • OEDepict TK 2D Molecule rendering and depiction
