1 Review Goal: Given a protein structure, predict its ligand bindings Protein-Ligand Docking Methods Applications: Function prediction Drug discovery etc. Thomas Funkhouser Princeton University S597A, Fall hld Review Questions: Questions: Where will the ligand bind? Which ligand will bind? ow will the ligand bind? When? Why? etc. Where will the ligand bind? Which ligand will bind? ow will the ligand bind? When? Why? etc. Ligand 1hld 1hld Goal: Metric: Given a protein and a ligand, determine the pose(s) and conformation(s) minimizing the total energy of the protein-ligand complex ow well do the predicted poses and conformations match measured ones (e.g., RMSD) [Jones97] 1
