Abstract
There is a large body of evidence that many protein-ligand cocrystal structures contain poorly refined ligand geometries. These errors result in bound structures that have nonideal bond lengths and angles, are strained, contain improbable conformations, and have bad protein-ligand contacts. Many of these problems can be greatly reduced with better refinement models.Keywords: Protein−ligand cocrystal; bound ligand strain; structure refinement; structure-based design; structure-induced fit
