Difference between Docking (molecular) and Ligand (biochemistry)

Docking (molecular) vs. Ligand (biochemistry)

In the field of molecular modeling, docking is a method which predicts the preferred orientation of one molecule to a second when bound to each other to form a stable complex. In biochemistry and pharmacology, a ligand is a substance that forms a complex with a biomolecule to serve a biological purpose.

Similarities between Docking (molecular) and Ligand (biochemistry)

Docking (molecular) and Ligand (biochemistry) have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Agonist, Binding site, Conformational isomerism, Docking@Home, Enzyme, Enzyme inhibitor, IC50, Protein, Receptor antagonist.

Agonist

An agonist is a chemical that binds to a receptor and activates the receptor to produce a biological response.

Binding site

In biochemistry, a binding site is a region on a protein or piece of DNA or RNA to which ligands (specific molecules and/or ions) may form a chemical bond.

Conformational isomerism

In chemistry, conformational isomerism is a form of stereoisomerism in which the isomers can be interconverted just by rotations about formally single bonds (refer to figure on single bond rotation).

IC50

The half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) is a measure of the potency of a substance in inhibiting a specific biological or biochemical function.

Protein

Proteins are large biomolecules, or macromolecules, consisting of one or more long chains of amino acid residues.

Receptor antagonist

A receptor antagonist is a type of receptor ligand or drug that blocks or dampens a biological response by binding to and blocking a receptor rather than activating it like an agonist.
