Induced fit docking with Glide and Prime as part of the Induced Fit docking workflow

Version 1

The New Medicines for Trypanosomatidic Infections - NMTrypI project aimed at obtaining new candidate drugs against Trypanosomatidic infections with appropriate efficiency from the lead phase to the final preclinical phase that are more accessible to patients.

Multidisciplinary development of selective anti-parasitic multi-target inhibitors of PTR1/DHFR based on a pteridine scaffold.

Rigid-body docking studies and induced-fit docking studies of pteridine-based compounds to the target proteins TbPTR1, TbDHFR, LmPTR1, LmDHFR and the off-target hDHFR. For both PTR1 variants and human DHFR, conserved structural water sets were considered. Preparations of compound libraries and docking receptors are also covered.

Docking results of pteridine-based compounds in different target PTR1 and DHFR receptors and the off-target human DHFR when using an induced fit docking routine with an initial crude ligand placement step, subsequent receptor optimization in response to ligand binding and another docking step into the optimized receptor.
