Abstract:

Protein-ligand interaction studies play an important role in understanding of biological science, drug screening and drug design, thus have both scientific and economic meanings. In this review, NMR techniques that are being widely employed to study protein-ligand interaction are summarized. The important parameters used to characterize the intermolecular interaction are introduced firstly, followed by descriptions of the approaches for identifying interaction regions and how to extract valuable information related to intermolecular interaction. Finally, the NMR techniques that have been applied to map protein-ligand interaction are introduced with application examples.

Key words: NMR, protein, ligand, intermolecular interaction, drug screening
