X Abstract

A new semi-empirical method for calculating free energies of binding from molecular dynamics (MD) simulations is presented. It is based on standard thermodynamic cycles and on a linear approximation of polar and non-polar free energy contributions from the corresponding MD averages. The method is tested on a set of endothiapepsin inhibitors and found to give accurate results both for absolute as well as relative free energies.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
