Receptors are inherently dynamic and this flexibility is important to consider when constructing a model of molecular association. Conformations from molecular dynamics simulations, a well-established method for examining protein dynamics, can be used in virtual screening to account for flexibility in structure-based drug discovery. Different receptor configurations influence docking results. Molecular dynamics simulations can provide snapshots that improve virtual screening predictive power over known crystal structures, most likely as a result of sampling more relevant receptor conformations. Here we highlight some details and nuances of using such snapshots and evaluating them for predictive performance.
