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.
