Abstract

Virtual ligand screening (VLS) is an in silico technology used for the productive and
cost effective search for novel hit or lead compounds. VLS can be divided into rigid
body docking (e.g. FRED) and flexible body docking (e.g. Surflex) procedures. Theoretically, rigid body docking VLS is fast but less accurate whereas flexible
docking VLS is more accurate but time consuming. The target (e.g. protein) for VLS is dynamic in nature and can adopt different conformations.
