Overview

Predicting enzyme-substrate complex structures through docking is a pivotal aspect of computational biology, facilitating the understanding of molecular interactions at the atomic level. This method leverages molecular docking algorithms to simulate the binding between enzymes and substrates, providing valuable insights into the potential binding modes and energetics. Recent research progress in this domain involves refining docking algorithms to enhance accuracy, incorporating dynamic factors such as flexibility and solvent effects, and integrating experimental data to validate predictions. Additionally, advancements in high-performance computing have expedited the exploration of large conformational spaces, contributing to a more comprehensive analysis of enzyme-substrate interactions. These endeavors hold promise for drug discovery and enzyme engineering by enabling the rational design of compounds with enhanced binding affinity and specificity.
