How eHiTS solves the docking and scoring problems

SimBioSys Inc., 135 Queen's Plate Dr, Unit 520, Toronto, ON M9W 6V1,
Canada
Abstract:
Ten lessons learned during ten years of eHiTS docking and scoring development:
- It is not sufficient to sample a few dozen low energy conformers
- The search space is vast: brute force systematic or blind random searches fail
- Need to hit all the good interactions while avoiding bad ones, BUT it is not always clear what is good
- Location, location, location: buried versus exposed surfaces, pocket depth
- A weak interaction is better than none: Pi-cation, C-H...O and others
- Not all H-bonds are created equal: the use of functional group knowledge base
- The importance of protonation states, induced changes upon binding
- Beware of data errors: curation of PDB structures, binding data inconsistencies
- Diversify the 3 aspects of scoring: pose ranking, enrichment and binding energy estimation
- Different protein families need different weighting schemes
