    Notes: The ability to generate feasible binding orientations of a small molecule within a site of known structure is important for ligand design. We present a method that combines a rapid, geometric docking algorithm with the evaluation of molecular mechanics interaction energies. The computational costs of evaluation are minimal because we precalculate the receptor-dependent terms in the potential function at points on a three-dimensional grid. In four test cases where the components of crystallographically determined complexes are redocked, the “force field” score correctly identifies the family of orientations closest to the experimental binding geometry. Scoring functions that consider only steric factors or only electrostatic factors are less successful. The force field function will play an important role in our efforts to search databases for potential lead compounds.

    Notes: Molecular docking explores the binding modes of two interacting molecules. The technique is increasingly popular for studying protein-ligand interactions and for drug design. A fundamental problem problem with molecular docking is that orientation space is very large and grows combinatorially with the number of degrees of freedom of the interacting molecules. Here, we describe and evaluate algorithms that improve the efficiency and accuracy of a shape-based docking method. We use molecular organization and sampling techniques to remove the exponential time dependence on molecular size in docking calculations. The new techniques allow us to study systems that were prohibitively large for the original method. The new algorithms are tested in 10 different protein-ligand systems, including 7 systems where the ligand is itself a protein. In all cases, the new algorithms successfully reproduce the experimentally determined configurations of the ligand in the protein.

    Notes: A computational method for exploring the orientational and conformational space of a flexible ligand within a macromolecular receptor site is presented. The approach uses a variant of the DOCK algorithm [Kuntz et al., J. Mol. Biol., 161, 288 (1982)] to determine orientations of a fragment of the ligand within the site. These positions then form the basis for exploring the conformational space of the rest of the ligand, using a systematic search algorithm. The search incorporates a method by which the ligand conformation can be modified in response to interactions with the receptor. The approach is applied to two test cases, in both of which the crystallographically determined structures are obtained. However, alternative models can also be obtained that differ significantly from those observed experimentally. The ability of a variety of measures of the intermolecular interaction to discriminate among these structures is discussed.
