Large Scale Study of Ligand-Protein Relative Binding Free Energy Calculations: Actionable Predictions from Statistically Robust Protocols

Agastya P. Bhati et al.

Summary: Accurate and reliable prediction of protein-ligand binding affinities is crucial in drug discovery and personalized medicine. While alchemical free energy methods have seen advancements in speed and accuracy, their applicability in real-world scenarios is still limited. This study provides statistically robust results on the accuracy, precision, and reproducibility of relative binding free energy calculations, as well as recommendations for their reliable application.

Meta-Analysis Reveals That Absolute Binding Free-Energy Calculations Approach Chemical Accuracy

Haohao Fu et al.

Summary: This study provides evidence-based information on the reliability of formally exact methods in calculating absolute protein-ligand binding free energies in silico. Through meta-analysis of 853 cases from 34 research groups, it is shown that these methods approach chemical accuracy and can handle challenging tasks. Geometrical-pathway-based methods have better convergence ability, while alchemical methods have a wider application range. The study emphasizes the importance of using the latest force fields and considers the pros and cons of using an implicit solvent model in binding free-energy calculations.
