An Introduction to Protein-Ligand Binding for BindingDB Users
نویسنده
چکیده
BindingDB collects measured binding affinities of proteins and small molecules that bind via noncovalent interactions, in order to help scientists design new medications. This document provides background information on protein-small molecule binding, drug design, and the measurement of binding affinities. Subsequent documents will discuss the data that BindingDB collects and how BindingDB may be used.

متن کاملConnecting proteins with drug-like compounds: Open source drug discovery workflows with BindingDB and KNIME
Today's large, public databases of protein-small molecule interaction data are creating important new opportunities for data mining and integration. At the same time, new graphical user interface-based workflow tools offer facile alternatives to custom scripting for informatics and data analysis. Here, we illustrate how the large protein-ligand database BindingDB may be incorporated into KNIME ...

A common strategy for virtual screening considers a systematic docking of a large library of organic compounds into the target sites in protein receptors with promising leads selected based on favorable intermolecular interactions. Despite a continuous progress in the modeling of protein-ligand interactions for pharmaceutical design, important challenges still remain, thus the development of no...
