Method |
Primary source abstract:"LIGSITE is a new program for the automatic and time-efficient detection of pockets on the surface of proteins that may act as binding sites for small molecule ligands. Pockets are identified with a series of simple operations on a cubic grid." |
Comments |
p.684 caption to fig.1C:"The available volume of the active site is about 520 Å^3 [calculated with the LIGSITE algorithm (primary source)]." p.685 middle column bottom paragraph:"Furthermore, as a result of this aromatic clustering, the active site of CYP3A4 has a probe-accessible volume (primary source) of about 520 Å^3, substantially smaller than expected on the basis of its reported metabolism of large substrates." |
