Sampling of conformational ensemble for virtual screening using molecular dynamics simulations and normal mode analysis.
AIM Molecular dynamics simulations and normal mode analysis are well-established approaches to generate receptor conformational ensembles (RCEs) for ligand docking and virtual screening. Here, we report new fast molecular dynamics-based and normal mode analysis-based protocols combined with conformational pocket classifications to efficiently generate RCEs. MATERIALS & METHODS We assessed our...
متن کاملSuccessful application of virtual screening and molecular dynamics simulations against antimalarial molecular targets
The main challenge in the control of malaria has been the emergence of drug-resistant parasites. The presence of drug-resistant Plasmodium sp. has raised the need for new antimalarial drugs. Molecular modelling techniques have been used as tools to develop new drugs. In this study, we employed virtual screening of a pyrazol derivative (Tx001) against four malaria targets: plasmepsin-IV, plasmep...
متن کاملVirtual Screening of Molecular Databases Using a Support Vector Machine
The Support Vector Machine (SVM) is an algorithm that derives a model used for the classification of data into two categories and which has good generalization properties. This study applies the SVM algorithm to the problem of virtual screening for molecules with a desired activity. In contrast to typical applications of the SVM, we emphasize not classification but enrichment of actives by usin...
متن کاملVirtual screening of RAGE inhibitors using molecular docking
Advanced Glycation End products (AGEs) interaction with Receptor for AGEs (RAGE) activates downstream signaling and evokes inflammatory responses in vascular cells. Therefore, it is of interest to design a novel series of molecules with a library of 352 compounds based on natural Isoflavone and Argpyrimidine moities. The compounds screened against the optimized structure of RAGE (PDB code: 3CJJ...
متن کاملCombined Ligand/Structure-Based Virtual Screening and Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Steroidal Androgen Receptor Antagonists
The antiandrogens, such as bicalutamide, targeting the androgen receptor (AR), are the main endocrine therapies for prostate cancer (PCa). But as drug resistance to antiandrogens emerges in advanced PCa, there presents a high medical need for exploitation of novel AR antagonists. In this work, the relationships between the molecular structures and antiandrogenic activities of a series of 7α-sub...
