Description
there are many programs that designed for docking, if you want an free-open-source and simple program, perform the docking with autodock and PyRx vina wizard program.iam using it for many years for my research and publications, because it is the easier and perfect program i have ever seen.in this course you will do ligand-receptor docking completely first, how to draw the ligands perfectly and how to form usable ligand library using chemdraw and chemsketch programs.second, how to extract the receptor from Protein Data Bank PDB and manipulate it professionally.third, how to use autodock and PyRx program for the docking process.how to upload the ligands and receptors.how to minimize the energy of the ligands.how to perform the docking process with zero-error results.how to convert the results into excel sheet for analysis and interpretation.how to visualize the results and see the ligand-receptor complex and the binding sites and bonds using PyMOL program.simply follow my steps  carefully to get the binding affinity results.you can compare between many ligands on one receptor to choose the best ligand that highly bound and more fit.you will get a certification of completion by the end of the course.join my course now and enjoy  docking process.
