Deriving a receptor based QSAR model using docking data
The objective of the study is to demonstrate the utility of using GOLD-derived 3D-parameters along with other external 2D-data to illuminate a quantitative understanding of the SAR of a series of potent serine protease inhibitors. It also serves to highlight the ease with which these various data can be handled and displayed in the fully integrated piece of software, GoldMine.

Validation of Docking Poses via Interaction Motif Searching
Given a set of docking poses for a single ligand can we separate correct poses from high scoring but incorrect poses by comparing protein-ligand interaction motifs?

Identifying and modelling key water molecules
Water molecules can play key roles in mediating protein-ligand interactions. In this use case we illustrate how to make the most out the vast amounts of structural data available from the PDB and the CSD when trying to identifying key hydration sites. We will also show how to model water molecules in protein-ligand docking.

Sampling ring conformations during protein-ligand docking
Ring structures commonly form the core of small molecule drugs and biological substrates. The problem of exploring conformational space of flexible rings in protein-ligand docking is examined using the program GOLD.
