For this document, virtual screening protocol will be described in detail for IGF-IR system (by Yulin Huang).
1. Identify the Target
This is the very fist step for virtual screening. Usually, a single or multiple proteins are selected as targets if their mutations or overexpression are implicated in certain diseases. However, disease relevance alone is not sufficient for target identification. Moreover, the target must be druggable which means the target should be predicted to bind to a drug with high affinity and this binding will bring therapeutic benefit to the patients. The target is defined as druggable if there are drugs already identified for it. Otherwise, druggability can be predicted using evolution rules, structural properties or other destructors.
2. Prepare the Target
At this step, you need to prepare the protein structure used for virtual screening. The structures can be downloaded from PDB database if they are available. Make sure which form of the structure should be used. For example, for IGF-IR system, PDB structures have been released for active, inactive, and intermediate forms. Or the structures can be obtained from homology modeling or molecular dynamic simulations. All the protein structures are aligned to a common frame and processed with AMBER tleap program. Hydrogen was added and minimized and force field parameters were assigned. Monoatomic ions should be carefully treated and usually they are treated as part of the receptor if they were within ca. 10Å from the binding site. In terms of water molecules, prior knowledge is needed for decisions. If the system is known to have water-mediated interactions (i.e, ErbB family receptors), then the waters should be included as part of the receptors. If not, waters should be removed. For histidine residues, they are treated based on the environment, i.e., which nitrogen was coordinated with ions and/or ligands.
3. Database Preparation
4. Run Docking on Bluegene
(1) Make the grid for the protein. For IGF-IR system, active (PDB 2ZM3), inactive (PDB 3NW5) and intermediate forms(PDB 3D94)are used. For this document, only results for 3D94 are reported.

Among them, the parameters are set as follows: set grid_spacing = 0.3 set attractive = 6 set repulsive = 9 set box_margin = 8
(2) Dock to the Database
The compound database in this study is ChemDiv. The database was split into 21 chunks. Docking was running on BlueGene 512 block and clock was set to 48 hours. For this step, the basic flexible docking protocol was used.
