Introduction
This tutorial is a continuation of the virtual screening tutorial. In this tutorial, we'll continue to work with the receptor and ligand in PDB 3WZE, and we'll attempt to generate new ligands for the receptor using three kinds of de novo design: de novo refinement, focused de novo design, and generic de novo design.
De novo can be directly translated as "of new", but a more deft translation might be "from the beginning" or "from scratch". This method of ligand generation involves procedurally generating a a ligand using algorithms within programs like DOCK, and is typically used to build entirely new ligands for proteins by building molecules outwards from an initial anchor one moiety at a time. Generic de novo design best matches the prior description, in which a pre-selected or random anchor is positioned within the active site of the receptor, and then built outwards in a number of layers occupied by various sampled moieties.
