Protein-Ligand Docking<br />
-Tries to predict the binding of a small molecule<br />
(ligand) to a protein structure.<br />
-Structure-Based Drug Design (SBDD) method.<br />
-Protein-ligand Docking can be use to perform<br />
VIRTUAL SCREENING of a large dataset<br />
(library) of potential ligands, in search of lead<br />
compounds.<br />
-Protein-ligand Docking predicts a POSE of the<br />
ligand (binding mode) and a SCORE of binding<br />
affinity representing the binding strength.
