Molecular Docking Tutorial (Part 1: GABAA Receptor)

▶️ Watch on 3Speak

First time on 3Speak.
My current research involves using In Silico drug design approach in designing and synthesizing possible drug compounds.
The target discussed is one that has been established to be involved in the pathway of epilepsy, one of the major neurological disorders worldwide.
The use of Computer aided drug design helps to save time and a lot of resources in reseach.

This is a step by step guide i made for anyone willing to explore. A guide is provided for anyone interested.

The Video discusses the concepts of :
--Dock Validation,
--Virtual Screening and
--Post Dock Analysis

They are freely available software, which include UCSF Chimera, Autodock Tools, Cygwin Terminal and Discovery Studio.

A guide material has been provided alongside a folder that contains the necessary files and links needed to execute the various steps shown in the video. You can access them and download here:
