DoGSiteScorer: a web server for automatic binding site prediction, analysis and druggability assessment

Bioinformatics. 2012 Aug 1;28(15):2074-5. doi: 10.1093/bioinformatics/bts310. Epub 2012 May 23.

Abstract

Motivation: Many drug discovery projects fail because the underlying target is finally found to be undruggable. Progress in structure elucidation of proteins now opens up a route to automatic structure-based target assessment. DoGSiteScorer is a newly developed automatic tool combining pocket prediction, characterization and druggability estimation and is now available through a web server.

Availability: The DoGSiteScorer web server is freely available for academic use at http://dogsite.zbh.uni-hamburg.de
