Virtual screening: FAQs for starters
SHARE

Virtual screening can be difficult for beginners. Here are some FAQs for starters that can help you overcome small issues.

In this article, I have collected some of the most Frequently Asked Questions while performing virtual screening. You have to consider a lot of factors before performing an actual docking on a protein with multiple ligands.

Question: How to download compounds for virtual screening? 

Question: How to know which database to download for virtual screening?

Question: How to prepare multiple ligands for virtual screening?

Question: How to know the binding pocket of a predicted structure of a protein for VS?

Question: How do I define ligand names for virtual screening?

Question: Error: Could not open file ligands.txt

Question: Error: Could not open file “protein.pdbqt” for reading

These are a few FAQs for beginners in bioinformatics. If you have any other query then feel free to post a question in our community.
