| Sumario: | Molecular docking is a widely used and effective structure-based computational strategy for predicting dynamics between ligands and receptors. Until now the docking software were developed for the protein-ligand interactions and very few docking tools were developed exclusively for the docking of small molecules on the nucleic acid structures like the DNA and RNA. The progress in algorithms and the need for deeper understanding of ligand-nucleic acid interactions more focused, and specialized tools are being developed to explore this hindered area of drug discovery. This chapter is focused on and discus in details about various tools available for docking with nucleic acids and how the rejuvenation of machine learning methods is making its impact on the development of these docking programs. |
