[Application of the methods of molecular modeling to the search for new biologically active substances]
Abstract:
The searching for new chemical compounds possessing specific biological activity is a complex problem that needs the usage of modern methods of molecular modeling. In particular, for the prupose of searching for potentially active compounds for whole class of SH2 domains, a comparison of all available structures, their cluster analysis, molecu- lar docking, selection of all possible pharmacophore models and GTM prediction were done. Obtained results testify to the considerable variability of binding of SH2 domains.

Ligand Binding Sites
Protein-ligand interactions are quite specific; even though numerous potential ligands surround a cellular protein at any given time, only a particular ligand can bind to that protein. Moreover, a ligand binds only to a dedicated area on the surface of the protein, known as the...
