We have a testing version of a new piece of software from the labs. Called cyclops the tool is designed to help in the generation of large numbers of constrained and linear peptides. Non-natural amino acids and other commercially available residues from the ZINC database can also be incorporated.

The program is capable of switching between different representations of the peptide, for example the SMILES description. The output of the program give empirical information on peptide properties advising the user on the likely ease of solid-phase peptide synthesis, and provides options to filter the library on the basis of druglike properties of the peptides.

It is available on Bioware.
