ABSTRACT
The protein-ligand binding frequently occurs in living organisms and plays a crucial role in the execution of the functions of proteins and drugs. It is also an indispensable part of drug discovery and screening. While the methods for investigating protein-ligand binding are diverse, each has its own objectives, strengths, and limitations, which all influence the choice of method. Many studies concentrate on one or a few specific methods, suggesting that comprehensive summaries are lacking. Therefore in this review, these methods are comprehensively summarized and are discussed in detail prediction and simulation methods, thermal and thermodynamic methods, spectroscopic methods, methods of determining three-dimensional structures of the complex, mass spectrometry-based methods and others. It is also important to integrate these methods based on the specific objectives of the research. With the aim of advancing pharmaceutical research, this review seeks to deepen the understanding of the protein-ligand binding process.
