Introductions to Flexible Docking

Flexible docking is a computational technique that predicts the preferred orientation and binding mode of two molecules, typically a ligand and a receptor. Unlike rigid docking, which assumes that the molecules are inflexible, flexible docking takes into account the conformational flexibility of both the ligand and the receptor. This is essential because in reality, molecules can adopt different shapes and conformations, and their flexibility often plays a significant role in determining the binding affinity and specificity.

Advantages of Flexible Docking

Flexible docking offers significant advantages in molecular interaction studies. It accommodates the conformational flexibility of molecules, leading to more accurate and realistic representations of binding interactions. The adcantage of flexible docking including but are not limited to:

  • Enhanced Conformational Sampling
  • Increased Accuracy in Binding Predictions
  • Versatility in Molecular Complexes
  • Insight into Dynamic Processes

Our Services

The flexible docking service provided by CD ComputaBio can meet the complex needs of researchers to gain an in-depth understanding of ligand-receptor interactions. Flexible docking allow the ligand and receptor to move dynamically during the docking process, enabling more accurate predictions of binding affinities and conformational changes and providing deeper insights into molecular interactions. Our professional team is committed to providing high-quality, customized solutions,including:

  • Target and Ligand Preparation

At CD ComputaBio, the target protein and ligand molecules will be properly prepared. This involves accurate structural determination and optimization, laying the foundation for a successful docking analysis. In case there is no structure available for the target, we offer the following services:

  • Conformational Sampling

A wide range of conformations for both the ligand and the receptor are sampled by our technology. This extensive sampling helps to capture the flexibility and variability of the molecules, which is crucial for accurate docking.

  • Flexible Docking Simulation

Utilizing advanced molecular docking software, we perform the flexible docking simulations. During this phase, both the ligand and the receptor are allowed to change their conformations, enabling a realistic assessment of their interactions.

  • Result Analysis and Validation

Comprehensive analysis of the docking results will be provided, results such as interaction targets, key amino acids involved in the interaction, and the predicted stability of the complex will be analyzed in detail, including but not limited to:
