Title: | Enhancing protein-ligand binding affinity predictions using neural network potentials |
Abstract: | This letter gives results on improving protein-ligand binding affinity predictions based on molecular dynamics simulations using machine learning potentials with a hybrid neural network potential and molecular mechanics methodology (NNP/MM). We compute relative binding free energies with the Alchemical Transfer Method and validate its performance against established benchmarks and find significant enhancements compared with conventional MM force fields like GAFF2. © 2024 American Chemical Society. |
