A method has been developed that allows one to drive a molecule to conformations of lowest energy given the starting conformation, the identity of the rotatable bonds and the step size. This method has proved useful in our hands in the drug design arena where it is frequently more important to get ‘low-energy’ conformers of a molecule that match some other (e.g. pharmacophoric or enzyme pocket) requirements than to exhaustively enumerate all possible low-energy conformations for each of the molecules to be studied. The method has been shown to work in the test cases studied to date. Furthermore, so far it has been shown to be sufficiently fast to be used for molecules containing up to 70 rotatable bonds. |
