Significant Enhancement of Docking Sensitivity Using Implicit Ligand Sampling

Abstract: The efficient and accurate quantification of protein-ligand interactions using computational methods is still a challenging task. Two factors strongly contribute to the failure of docking methods to predict free energies of binding accurately: the insufficient incorporation of protein flexibility coupled to ligand binding and the neglected dynamics of the protein-ligand complex in current scoring schemes. We have developed a new methodology, named the ‘ligand-model’ concept, to sample protein conformations tha… Show more

“…For example, ensembles derived from NMA or Monte Carlo can be filtered using ligand information to select representative protein conformations [75]. Using a dynamic virtual ligand (represented by a collection of functional groups), an MD simulation of the binding event can generate promising protein conformations [94], [95]. Another method generates an ensemble of protein conformations by docking flexible ligands to a flexible receptor, using known active compounds [96].…”

“…However, the mechanism of induced fit is put forward that ligand binding induces a conformational change of protein to adapt each other when the ligand binds to a low-energy conformation of the unbound protein (Csermely, Palotai, & Nussinov, 2010). Therefore, if the ligand-free protein structure is used as the receptor, the rigid docking cannot sufficiently incorporate the protein flexibility induced by ligand; while if the ligand-bound protein conformations taken from the MD trajectory are used as the receptors, other ligands may be unable to bind to the ensemble of conformations because the MD trajectory of the ligand-bound form of the protein is biased towards the specific ligand used in the simulation (Xu & Lill, 2011). In order to get the plausible binding mode of m7GpppG to NP, conformations sampled every 1 ns from the MD trajectories (1.5-10.5 ns) of the dTTP complex, the crystal structure of native NP, and the dTTP complex are used as receptors to which m7GpppG are docked (the C domain of NP was truncated in all these receptors), 12 docking experiments are done totally.…”
