Investigating the dynamic aspects of drug-protein recognition through a combination of MD and NMR analyses: implications for the development of protein-protein interaction inhibitors.

In this paper, we investigate the dynamic aspects of the molecular recognition between a small molecule ligand and a flat, exposed protein surface, representing a typical target in the development of protein-protein interaction inhibitors. Specifically, we analyze the complex between the protein Fib...
