Abstract:While large library docking has discovered potent ligands for multiple targets, as the libraries have grown, the very top of the hit-lists can become populated with artifacts that cheat our scoring functions. Though these cheating molecules are rare, they become ever-more dominant with library growth. Here, we investigate rescoring top-ranked molecules from docking screens with orthogonal methods to identify these artifacts, exploring implicit solvent models and absolute binding free energy perturbation (AB-FE… Show more
