“…Validation of the virtual screening procedures or in silico methodologies is not mandatory, but it is often seen. Despite this, of the 46 papers, only 19 did any kind of assay to validate their results [6,11,12,13,14,15,16,23,33,35,38,39,44,46,47,55,56,58,61]. Validation trials were considered if they performed a redocking experiment with the targeted protein and its original ligand, compared the binding conformations of the found molecules and the original ligands on the targeted protein, and performed a molecular dynamics simulation.…”
