Abstract
The compilation of ligand and structure-based molecular modeling methods has become an important practice in virtual screening applied to drug discovery. This systematic review addresses and ranks various virtual screening strategies to drive the selection of the optimal method for studies that have as their starting point a multi-ligand investigation and investigation based on the protein structure of a therapeutic target. This study shows examples of applications and an evaluation based on the objective and problematic of a series of virtual screening studies present in the ScienceDirect® database. The results showed that the molecular docking technique is widely used in scientific production, indicating that approaches that use protein structure as a starting point are the most promising strategy for drug discovery that relies on virtual screening-based research.
