ProtCool 2.0: um gerador de protocolo para ancoragem e simulações de dinâmica molecular em complexos proteína-ligante em versão web
Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic made evident the high demand for computational systems that speed up the indication of new drugs. In this sense, understanding the dynamic behavior of biomolecule complexes is essential However, the preparation of such simulations is highly complex, and their numerous details are not always sufficiently highlighted, compromising their reproducibility. Here, we propose the web tool ProtCool - a protocol generator, focused on the integration between docking and molecular dynamics of proteinligand complexes. Its use will be demonstrated in the simulation of the interaction between acetylcholinesterase and galantamine, used in the treatment of Alzheimer's.
