(minimized with Quanta/CHARMm)

Exercise:

  1. Identify the binding mode,
  2. Identify the interactions between host and guest / substrate and receptor molecules;
  3. Where possible try to estimate the corresponding free energies.
  4. Where applicable check where there are possible conformational distortions upon complex formation (induced fit)
