Variational implicit-solvent predictions of the dry-wet transition pathways for ligand-receptor binding and unbinding kinetics

Shenggao Zhou, R. Gregor Weiß, Li-Tien Cheng +3

Ligand-receptor binding and unbinding are fundamental biomolecular processes and particularly essential to drug efficacy. Environmental water fluctuations, however, impact the corr…

Dewetting-controlled binding of ligands to hydrophobic pockets

P. Setny, Z. Wang, L. -T. Cheng +3

We report on a combined atomistic molecular dynamics simulation and implicit solvent analysis of a generic hydrophobic pocket-ligand (host-guest) system. The approaching ligand ind…
