Dual-LAO for calculating fast and robust relative binding free energies of simple and complex transformations

Narjes Ansari, Félix Aviat, Jérôme Hénin +2

Relative Binding Free Energy (RBFE) calculations are a cornerstone of rational hit-to-lead and lead optimization in modern drug discovery. However, the high computational cost and…

Explicit models of motions to understand protein side-chain dynamics

Nicolas Bolik-Coulon, Olivier Languin-Cattoën, Diego Carnevale +5

Nuclear magnetic relaxation is widely used to probe protein dynamics. For decades, most analyses of relaxation in proteins have relied successfully on the model-free approach, forg…
