CCL: GPCR Dock 2013 Assessment



 Sent to CCL by: "Angela  Walker" [alwalker~~scripps.edu]
 Dear GPCR modeling and docking researcher,
 We are writing to announce the 3rd round of the GPCR Docking and Modeling
 Assessment, GPCR Dock 2013, and to invite you to submit your predictions of
 GPCR-ligand structures for comparison prior to publication of the results.
 The first two GPCR Dock assessments were conducted in 2008 and 2010 and were
 based on the structures of A2A adenosine receptor (GPCR Dock 2008; NRDD
 2009), dopamine D3 receptor and chemokine receptor CXCR4 (GPCR Dock 2010;
 Structure 2011). As before, the results from GPCR Dock 2013 will be
 published once an analysis is complete.
 We encourage all industry and academic groups to participate and so please
 pass word of this assessment onto your colleagues who may have not directly
 been contacted.
 The present round of the assessment will be focused on four target
 complexes. Participants can choose to predict any one, two, three, or all
 four targets. Predicting all four targets is strongly encouraged. Registered
 participants will receive receptor and ligand information at midnight
 (Pacific standard time) on Feb 1st, and will have until midnight (PST) March
 3rd (30 days) to deposit models. Further information about the assessment
 and registration forms to participate can be found at
 http://gpcr.scripps.edu/GPCRDock2013
 If you have any questions, please email (gpcrdock_+_scripps.edu) we will try
 to get back to you quickly and will also post any general comments to all
 registered participants.
