Journal of Computer-Aided Molecular Design
We show that these target classes are generally less druggable than bromodomains, but that some proteins stand as notable exceptions. ...
We find that limited protein backbone motion or the presence of side-cavities juxtaposed to the methyl-lysine binding pocket can significantly improve druggability. ...
) results in a significant variation in predicted druggability: the methyl group of T411 produces a more enclosed and more hydrophobic pocket, two features that increase its Dscore. ...
