Rigidity Strengthening: A Mechanism for Protein-Ligand Binding.

Abstract:

:Protein-ligand binding is essential to almost all life processes. The understanding of protein-ligand interactions is fundamentally important to rational drug and protein design. Based on large scale data sets, we show that protein rigidity strengthening or flexibility reduction is a mechanism in protein-ligand binding. Our approach based solely on rigidity is able to unveil a surprisingly apparently long-range contribution of apparently four residue layers to protein-ligand binding, which has ramifications for drug and protein design. Additionally, the present work reveals that among various pairwise interactions, the short-range ones within the distance of the van der Waals diameter are most important. It is found that the present approach outperforms all other state-of-the-art scoring functions for protein-ligand binding affinity predictions of two benchmark test sets.
