Quantum software provider QC Ware has completed a technology demonstration validating a hybrid quantum-classical computational chemistry workflow using its Promethium® platform and IBM Quantum hardware. The trial calculated the electrostatic interaction energy for nitric oxide reductase—a complex metalloenzyme system relevant to drug discovery, catalysis, and materials science—by pairing GPU-accelerated classical molecular modeling with quantum measurements executed on IBM’s 156-qubit Heron superconducting quantum processor. The workflow targeted electrostatic interaction energy, an essential molecular property used to rank-order candidate compounds and evaluate active catalytic sites. Promethium utilizes a GPU-native architecture capable of running demanding electronic structure calculations up to 20 times faster than [...]
