Hi Monica, Yes, I am thinking of doing mutagensis to disrupt binding and do ITC again. Any suggestions on which and how many residues I should mutate to disrupt the binding of the ligand? As I mentioned before that one of the two binding sites, which I am thinking of mutating first, has the follow

Thank you so much for the suggestions, Tomas! Yes, my ligand is a small molecule. I have the crystal structure of the ligands bound to the protein, do I still need to computationally dock the ligand to the two pockets, can I calculate the parameters of binding directly using the crystal structure?

Dear Wei Shi, is your ligand a small molecule? If it is a small molecule, I would try to computationally dock the small molecule to two pockets separately using AutoDock, and look at the estimated free energies of binding. Best wishes, Tomas On Mon, Nov 18, 2013 at 8:55 PM, Wei Shi wrote: > Hi al

Hi all, I got the crystal structure of a transcription factor, and every monomer binds two molecules of the same ligand in different binding pockets. And I also did the ITC experiment, titrating the ligand into the protein, and got a U-shaped curve. The binding affinity for the first binding site i
