VM2 receptor-ligand binding free energy results analysis using Chemical Computing Group’s MOE graphical user interface now available through the CCG SVL Exchange

VM2 users with access to Chemical Computing Group’s (CCG) Molecular Operating Environment (MOE) graphical interface can now analyze VM2 binding free energy results using a MOE SVL plugin. Download the VM2 MOE plugin from the CCG SVL Exchange.

VeraChem is pleased to announce the release of VM2 3.0, the latest version of its software for the calculation of protein-ligand and host-guest binding free energies.

VM2 3.0 includes an end-to-end workflow capability that automates system setup and forcefield typing/parameter assignment, ligand 2D to 3D conversion, generation of initial receptor-ligand conformations, submission of free energy calculations via resource managers, and collection and organization of final binding free energy results. Extensive benchmarking of VM2 3.0 predicted binding free...

Prof. Mike Gilson talks about VM2 for fast accurate protein-ligand binding free energies.

Professor Mike Gilson, co-founder of VeraChem, talks about our VM2 software for fast, accurate calculation of protein-ligand binding free energies, including mining minima theory, implementation, benchmarks, and directions. See Professor Gilson’s presentation here.

A joint VeraChem, Iowa State University, and University of Colorado Denver study applying QM-VM2 to the calculation of host-guest binding free energies published in the Journal of Chemical Physics.

QM-VM2, which efficiently combines statistical mechanics with quantum mechanical (QM) energy potentials in order to calculate noncovalent binding free energies of host–guest systems, is presented. QM-VM2 efficiently couples the use of semi-empirical QM (SEQM) energies and geometry optimizations with an underlying molecular mechanics (MM) based conformational search, to find low...
