Identification of binding pockets in protein structures using a knowledge-based potential derived from local structural similarities

BACKGROUND: The identification of ligand binding sites is a key task in the annotation of proteins with known structure but uncharacterized function. Here we describe a knowledge-based method exploiting the observation that unrelated binding sites share small structural motifs that bind the same che...
