CD ComputaBio is a leading company providing computer-aided drug design (CADD) platforms that help scientists discover and design new drugs and optimize compound properties. Among our wide range of service offerings, we provide binding free energy decomposition analysis services to help understand protein-ligand interactions, which are critical for developing and improving drugs. This service provides indispensable information related to binding free energy and breakdown components that affect ligand-receptor binding, helping to identify key residues and ligand modifications that can improve potency and selectivity.
Protein-ligand interactions play a critical role in biological processes and drug design. Thus, understanding the nature and strength of these interactions contributes significantly to successful drug design and development. Binding free energy decomposition analysis is a high-level computational service that dissects the interaction energy of a protein-ligand complex into individual residue contributions. This analysis helps in providing crucial insights into the binding modes between small molecules and their protein receptors, which ultimately enables the identification of key elements contributing to binding affinity.
