Calculating an optimal box size for ligand docking and virtual screening against experimental and predicted binding pockets |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
This fully automated procedure can be used to optimize docking protocols in order to improve the ranking accuracy in production virtual screening simulations. Importantly, the optimized search space systematically yields better results than the default method not only for experimental pockets, but also for those predicted from protein structures. A script for calculating the optimal docking box size is freely available at www.brylinski.org/content/docking-box-size. Graphical AbstractWe developed a procedure to optimize the box size in molecular docking calculations. Left panel shows the predicted binding pose of NADP (green sticks) compared to the experimental complex structure of human aldose reductase (blue sticks) using a default protocol. Right panel shows the docking accuracy using an optimized box size. |
