Protein-drug molecular docking

The Protein-drug molecular docking course is aimed at scientists who are interested in using computational techniques for the analysis and prediction of protein-ligand interactions

Course content

The techniques used in protein-drug molecular docking are becoming increasingly important in pharmaceutical, biotechnological and agricultural research in order to replace costly laboratory experiments or to generate novel hypotheses. The main subject areas covered by this course are:

• Fundamentals of protein structures
• Display and visual analysis of protein structures*
• Algorithms for molecular docking
• Receptor-based virtual screening*
• Enrichment factors
• Receiver-Operator (ROC) curves

* These sessions will also be covered at a practical level in the laboratory.
