Induced fit docking, and the use of QM/MM methods in docking.
Docking methods are popular computational techniques in drug discovery to identify new active molecules that bind to a given biological target. Although widely used, the predictive reliability of docking methods is often limited by the inability to accurately and efficiently model protein flexibility and quantify binding strength. We highlight several emerging concepts that address those methodological issues including a discussion on the incorporation of QM/MM methodologies in the scoring process.
