Docking-based virtual screening of TβR1 inhibitors: evaluation of pose prediction and scoring functions.

ABSTRACT: To improve the reliability of virtual screening for transforming growth factor-beta type 1 receptor (TβR1) inhibitors, 2 docking methods and 11 scoring functions in Discovery Studio software were evaluated and validated in this study. LibDock and CDOCKER protocols were performed on a test set of 24 TβR1 protein-ligand complexes. Based on the root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) values (in Å) between the docking poses and co-crystal conformations, the CDOCKER protocol can be efficiently applied to obtain more accurate dockings in medium-size virtual screening experiments of TβR1, with a successful docking rate of 95%. A dataset including 281 known active and 8677 inactive ligands was used to determine the best scoring function. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to co
