COACH-D is a template-based algorithm for protein-ligand binding site prediction. First, five individual methods are used to predict the ligand-binding pockets and residues. Then the ligands (from the templates or the user) are the docked into the binding pockets. One of the major improvements of COACH-D over COACH are the ligand-binding poses are refined to make them physically more realistic, using the efficient molecular docking algorithm AutoDock Vina. In addition, COACH-D has a new option to accept the submission of ligand. Read more about the COACH-D algorithm...
The major results returned by COACH-D include:
