Abstract
In recent years, virtual database screening using high‐throughput docking (HTD) has emerged as a very important tool and a well‐established method for finding new lead compounds in the drug discovery process. With the advent of powerful personal computers (PCs), it is now plausible to perform HTD investigations on these inexpensive PCs. To make HTD more accessible to a broad community, we present here WinDock, an integrated application designed to help researchers perform structure‐based drug discovery tasks under a uniform, user friendly graphical interface for Windows‐based PCs. WinDock combines existing small molecule searchable three‐dimensional (3D) libraries, homology modeling tools, and ligand‐protein docking programs in a semi‐automatic, interactive manner, which guides the user through the use of each integrated software component. WinDock is coded in C++. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Comput Chem 28: 2347–2351, 2007

In the discovery of useful theorems or laws from the data of observed instances, structures that group instances often play an important role. Acquiring data from such structure avoids the combinatorial explosion of numerous instances and enables the discovery of generalized theorems. This paper pro
