Methods for Improving Aptamer Binding Affinity [PDF]
Aptamers are single stranded oligonucleotides that bind a wide range of biological targets. Although aptamers can be isolated from pools of random sequence oligonucleotides using affinity-based selection, aptamers with high affinities are not always ...

DrugForm-DTA: Towards real-world drug-target binding affinity model [PDF]
Drug-target affinity (DTA) prediction is a fundamental challenge in drug discovery. Computational methods for predicting DTA can greatly assist drug design by narrowing the search space and reducing the number of protein-ligand complexes with low ...

Probing high affinity sequences of DNA aptamer against VEGF165. [PDF]
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF(165)) is a potent angiogenic mitogen commonly overexpressed in cancerous cells. It contains two main binding domains, the receptor-binding domain (RBD) and the heparin-binding domain (HBD). This study attempted to

Binding affinity and mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 variants
During the rapid worldwide spread of SARS-CoV-2, the viral genome has been undergoing numerous mutations, especially in the spike (S) glycoprotein gene that encode a type-I fusion protein, which plays an important role in the infectivity and ...

Method for computing protein binding affinity [PDF]
AbstractA Monte Carlo method is given to compute the binding affinity of a ligand to a protein. The method involves extending configuration space by a discrete variable indicating whether the ligand is bound to the protein and a special Monte Carlo move, which allows transitions between the unbound and bound states.

Intracellular drug binding affinities by NMR [PDF]
A commentary on the article by Luchinat et al. [(2021), Acta Cryst. D77, 1247–1258] where they describe an approach to identify the details of a compound binding to a molecular target using in-cell NMR to provide intracellular binding affinities.
