Specifically, we discuss the application of Molecular Dynamics Simulations and Electronic Structure Calculations in drug design, in the clarification of the structural and dynamic properties of proteins and enzymes and in the understanding of the catalytic and inhibition mechanism of cancerrelated enzymes. A set of examples illustrate the concepts and help to introduce the reader into this important and fast moving field. </abstract> <index>Open Science Index 32, 2009</index> </article>
