| Research Abstract |
The author developed the binding free-energy evaluation methodbetween protein and drug molecules to design drugs effectively.Since our method uses binding free-energy as a score function, the method is be able to predict protein-ligand complexes with high accuracy. We obtained some stable clusters which have low free-energy values, and native complex structures were included in one of these clusters for all of the protein-ligand systems. Thus our method predicts protein-drug complexes with high accuracy.
