Panoramic Review on Progress and Development of Molecular Docking
Author(s): Kiran Rameshbhai Dudhat*
In structural molecular biology and computer-assisted drug creation, molecular docking is a crucial tool. Predicting
the prevailing binding modes of a ligand with a protein having a known three-dimensional structure is the aim of
ligand-protein docking. Effective docking methods use a scoring system that correctly ranks candidate dockings
and efficiently explore high-dimensional spaces. Lead optimization benefits greatly from the use of docking to do
virtual screening on huge libraries of compounds, rate the outcomes, and offer structural ideas for how the ligands
inhibit the target. It can be difficult to interpret the findings of stochastic search methods, and setting up the input
structures for docking is just as crucial as docking itself.
In recent years, computer-assisted drug design has relied heavily on the molecular docking technique to estimate the
