Description

Fan Liu and seven colleagues present a free database of binding pockets on human G-protein coupled receptors, in a twenty twenty-four paper. These receptors are the largest family of membrane proteins in the body and are targets for many drugs. A receptor shifts between on and off shapes, and its drug pocket shifts too. Knowing both pocket shapes helps drug design.

The database holds near 128,000 predicted pockets from more than eight hundred receptors in both states. Pockets came from known structures plus predicted ones, screened by three geometry tools. Tests on known structures showed two tools found the true drug pocket in over sixty percent of cases. Users can search, view, and compare pockets on the public website.
