Improved protein–ligand binding affinity prediction by using a curvature-dependent surface-area model

Motivation: Hydrophobic effect plays a pivotal role in most protein–ligand binding. State-of-the-art protein–ligand scoring methods usually treat hydrophobic free energy as surface tension, which is proportional to interfacial surface area for simplicity and efficiency. However, this treatment ignor...
