Identifying receptor-ligand interactions through an ab initio approach. Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • We have demonstrated a qualitative relation between the electric characteristics and binding affinity of a complex receptor-ligand; a large binding affinity correlates with a large charge transfer. This allows us to analyze binding interactions of any complex using small computational resources with acceptable reliability of the results.
