Directory of useful decoys, enhanced (DUD-E): better ligands and decoys for better benchmarking

MM Mysinger, M Carchia, JJ Irwin… - Journal of medicinal …, 2012 - ACS Publications
A key metric to assess molecular docking remains ligand enrichment against challenging
decoys. Whereas the directory of useful decoys (DUD) has been widely used, clear areas for …

Benchmarking sets for molecular docking

N Huang, BK Shoichet, JJ Irwin - Journal of medicinal chemistry, 2006 - ACS Publications
Ligand enrichment among top-ranking hits is a key metric of molecular docking. To avoid
bias, decoys should resemble ligands physically, so that enrichment is not simply a …

Automated docking screens: a feasibility study

JJ Irwin, BK Shoichet, MM Mysinger… - Journal of medicinal …, 2009 - ACS Publications
Molecular docking is the most practical approach to leverage protein structure for ligand
discovery, but the technique retains important liabilities that make it challenging to deploy on …

Property-unmatched decoys in docking benchmarks

RM Stein, Y Yang, TE Balius, MJ O'Meara… - Journal of chemical …, 2021 - ACS Publications
Enrichment of ligands versus property-matched decoys is widely used to test and optimize
docking library screens. However, the unconstrained optimization of enrichment alone can …

Converging a Knowledge-Based Scoring Function: DrugScore2018

J Dittrich, D Schmidt, C Pfleger… - Journal of chemical …, 2018 - ACS Publications
We present DrugScore2018, a new version of the knowledge-based scoring function
