  2. 2. On the estimation of ligand binding affinities

    Författare :Samuel Genheden; Beräkningskemi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; binding affinities protein-ligand complexes; host-guest complexes; MM GBSA; MM PBSA; LIE; PDLD s-LRA; alchemical methods; sampling; solvation; drug design;

    Sammanfattning : A method to accurately estimate the binding affinity of a small molecule to a receptor would be indispensable in numerous fields. For instance, most drugs exert their action by binding to a macromolecule target. Thus, a lot of time and resources could be saved in drug design by predicting affinities by computer programs.

  3. 3. Computational prediction of receptor-ligand binding affinity in drug discovery

    Författare :John Marelius; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cell and molecular biology; computer-aided ligand design; molecular dynamics simulation; linear interaction energy; free energy perturbation; scoring function; dihydrofolate reductase; thrombin; serine proteases; Cell- och molekylärbiologi; Cell and molecular biology; Cell- och molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biotechnology; molekylär bioteknik avd f jonfysik ;

    Sammanfattning : The evaluation of inhibition constants or, more generally, receptor-ligand binding affinities is a crucial part of the drug discovery process. Chemical synthesis and affinity screening is only affordable for a limited number of compounds. This makes computational methods to predict binding affinities of candidate ligands highly desirable.
