| Abstract | A possible way of tackling the molecular docking problem arising in computer- aided drug design is the use of the incremental construction method. This method consists of three steps: the selection of a part of a molecule, a so- called base fragment, the placement of the base fragment into the active site of a protein, and the subsequent reconstruction of the complete drug molecule. Assuming that a part of a drug molecule is known, which is specific enough to be a good base fragment, the method is proven to be successful for a large set of docking examples. In addition, it leads to the fastest algorithms for flexible docking published so far. In most real-world applications of docking, large sets of ligands have to be tested for affinity to a given protein. Thus, manual selection of a base fragment is not practical. On the other hand, the selection of a base fragment is critical in that only few selections lead to a low-energy structure. We overcome this limitation by selecting a representative set of base fragments instead of a single one. In this paper, we present a set of rules and algorithms to automate this selection. In addition, we extend the incremental construction method to deal with multiple fragmentations of the drug molecule. Our results show that with multiple automated base selection, the quality of the docking predictions is almost as good as with one manually preselected base fragment. In addition, the set of solutions is more diverse and alternative binding modes with low scores are found. Although the run time of the overall algorithm increases, the method remains fast enough to search through large ligand data sets. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
