The Katchalski-Katzir algorithm is an algorithm for docking of rigid molecules, developed by Ephraim Katchalski-Katzir, Isaac Shariv and Miriam Eisenstein. [1] [2]In 1990 Professor Ephraim Katchalski-Katzir, former president of the state of Israel, gathered a group of physicists, chemists and biologists at the Weizmann Institute of Science, to discuss intermolecular recognition.
Docking flow-chart overview. To perform a docking screen, the first requirement is a structure of the protein of interest. Usually the structure has been determined using a biophysical technique such as X-ray crystallography, NMR spectroscopy or; cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), but can also derive from homology modeling construction. This ...
The goal of protein–ligand docking is to predict the position and orientation of a ligand (a small molecule) when it is bound to a protein receptor or enzyme. [1] Pharmaceutical research employs docking techniques for a variety of purposes, most notably in the virtual screening of large databases of available chemicals in order to select ...

Macromolecular docking is the computational modelling of the quaternary structure of complexes formed by two or more interacting biological macromolecules. Protein –protein complexes are the most commonly attempted targets of such modelling, followed by protein– nucleic acid complexes.
The number of notable protein-ligand docking programs currently available is high and has been steadily increasing over the last decades. The following list presents an overview of the most common notable programs, listed alphabetically, with indication of the corresponding year of publication, involved organisation or institution, short description, availability of a webservice and the license.
Docking glossary Receptor or host or lock The "receiving" molecule, most commonly a protein or other biopolymer. Ligand or guest or key The complementary partner molecule which binds to the receptor. Ligands are most often small molecules but could also be another biopolymer. Docking Computational simulation of a candidate ligand binding to a ...
Glide is a molecular modeling software for docking of small molecules into proteins and other biopolymers. [1] [2] It was developed by Schrödinger, Inc. References
