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.
In bioinformatics, LIGPLOT is a computer program that generates schematic 2-D representations of protein-ligand complexes from standard Protein Data Bank file input. [1] The LIGPLOT is used to generate images for the PDBsum resource that summarises molecular structure.
A unified interface for: Tertiary structure prediction/3D modelling, 3D model quality assessment, Intrinsic disorder prediction, Domain prediction, Prediction of protein-ligand binding residues Automated webserver and some downloadable programs RaptorX: remote homology detection, protein 3D modeling, binding site prediction
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 ...
The Molecular Operating Environment was developed by the Chemical Computing Group under the supervision of President/CEO Paul Labute. [3] Founded in 1994 [4] and based in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, this private company is dedicated to developing computation software that will challenge, revolutionize, and aid in the scientific methodology.
UCSF Chimera (or simply Chimera) is an extensible program for interactive visualization and analysis of molecular structures and related data, including density maps, supramolecular assemblies, sequence alignments, docking results, trajectories, and conformational ensembles. [1]
A protein–ligand complex is a complex of a protein bound with a ligand [2] that is formed following molecular recognition between proteins that interact with each other or with other molecules. Formation of a protein-ligand complex is based on molecular recognition between biological macromolecules and ligands, where ligand means any molecule ...
One approach uses a matching technique that describes the protein and the ligand as complementary surfaces. [6] [7] [8] The second approach simulates the actual docking process in which the ligand-protein pairwise interaction energies are calculated. [9] Both approaches have significant advantages as well as some limitations. These are outlined ...
