Guidelines To Predict Binding Poses of Antibody-Integrin Complexes.

ABSTRACT: Integrins are cell adhesion receptors that transmit bidirectional signals across the plasma membrane. They are noncovalently linked heterodimeric molecules consisting of two subunits and act as biomarkers in several pathologies. Thus, according to the increase of therapeutic antibody production, some efforts have been applied to produce anti-integrin antibodies. Here, we purposed to evaluate methods of generation and identification of the binding pose of integrin-antibody complexes, through protein-protein docking and molecular dynamics simulations, and propose a strategy to assure the confidence of the final model and avoid false-positive poses. The results show that ClusPro and GRAMM-X were the best programs to generate the native pose of integrin-antibody complexes. Furthermore, we were
