Open Invitation for submitting Drug Targets

This is an Open Invitation for researchers who are working to identify potent drug targets in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. If someone is interested in taking their drug targets forward in OSDD, they may post their project online. The format for posting these targets as project is available in the Open Project Space on http://sysborgtb.osdd.net. Once the projects are posted online they will be open for review by the OSDD Community and members of the Science Coordination Committee. The Project Investigators of the projects receiving positive comments will be invited for presentation. The presentation should comprise of the following four aspects- (1) Significance of the target(s) (2) Information on its structure (3) List of inhibitor(s) known or predicted (4) Information and detail of the assay, if available or developed

The Committee based on the inputs from the OSDD Community will shortlist targets that will be taken forward in OSDD.

For information please contact: info@osdd.net with ‘OSDD Drug Targets’ in the subject line.

Invitation call for assay and screen development

OSDD has short listed certain targets of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. In order to pursue further in the line of drug discovery, these target proteins will have to be expressed and biochemical assays are to be developed. Subsequently these assays will have to be converted in to screens for identifying inhibitors towards Lead identification. OSDD proposes to take this forward in a public private partnership mode. The targets short listed are available on the website www.osdd.net. Interested parties may send details of their experience and profile such as core strength in developing assays. Also kindly mention any services you might have provided to a pharmaceutical company along these lines. Kindly send your prime case examples. You may also like to nominate a contact person who may be required to make a presentation before a team of scientists. Kindly send your response by October 31, 2009. Kindly send your response to zt@csir.res.in; zthomas@osdd.org

M. tuberculosis H37Rv? DNA from OSDD JALMA Centre is available from IGIB. Contact ramu@igib.in

Working with the SysBorg System
SysBorg works on Twiki Structured wiki. You may need to acquaint yourselves with the system and we highly recommend you take the Tutorial	The SysBorg system assigns roles and responsibilities based on the different TWikiGroups. To start with all members are BlueGroup members and the highest role that can be attained is the PlatinumGroup. Roles would be assigned based on a unique micro-attribution sytem based on contributions to the SysBorg system.
