Using PyMOL as a platform for computational drug design

PyMOL, a cross‐platform molecular graphics tool, has been widely used for three‐dimensional (3D) visualization of proteins, nucleic acids, small molecules, electron densities, surfaces, and trajectories. It is also capable of editing molecules, ray tracing, and making movies. This Python‐based softw...

Popis
Shrnutí:PyMOL, a cross‐platform molecular graphics tool, has been widely used for three‐dimensional (3D) visualization of proteins, nucleic acids, small molecules, electron densities, surfaces, and trajectories. It is also capable of editing molecules, ray tracing, and making movies. This Python‐based software, alongside many Python plugin tools, has been developed to enhance its utilities and facilitate the drug design in PyMOL. To gain an insightful view of useful drug design tools and their functions in PyMOL, we present an extensive discussion on various molecular modeling modules in PyMOL, covering those for visualization and analysis enhancement, protein–ligand modeling, molecular simulations, and drug screening. This review provides an excellent introduction to present 3D structures visualization and computational drug design in PyMOL. WIREs Comput Mol Sci 2017, 7:e1298. doi: 10.1002/wcms.1298 This article is categorized under: Structure and Mechanism > Molecular Structures Computer and Information Science > Visualization Molecular and Statistical Mechanics > Molecular Mechanics The in situ drug design in PyMOL, guided by the predicted hydration sites in the binding pocket.
