Ligand Binding Site Prediction
Ligand binding is required for many proteins to function properly. A large number of bioinformatics tools have been developed to predict ligand binding sites as a first step in understanding a protein's function or facilitating docking computations in virtual screening-based drug design. Prediction usually only needs to search for the three-dimensional structure of the target protein of the ligand binding site (experimental determination or computational modeling) and the construction of a web server allows free and simple use of prediction tools. CD ComputaBio is proud to provide the most efficient protein-ligand binding site prediction services to our clients.

Overall solutions
- Template-based: those that make use of homologous or similar structures with already known binding sites
- Geometry-based: those that carry out some kind of geometric computation to identify binding site pockets
- Energy-based: those that compute the interaction energy using imaginary ligands as binding probes
- Propensity-based: those that compute the propensity of a certain property that indicates a statistically significant preference for known LBSs, rather than non-LBSs
- Combination-based and others: those that perform the prediction based on the results of other methods and those that cannot be easily classified into one of the above categories
