Conformational Sampling in Computational Studies of Natural Products: Why Is It Important?
Conformational sampling is a vital component of a reliable computational chemistry investigation. With the aim of illustrating the importance of conformational sampling, and building awareness among new practitioners, we present a series of case studies that show how the quality and reliability of computational studies depend on undertaking a thorough conformer search. The examples are drawn from the most common types of research questions in natural products chemistry, but the fundamental principles apply more generally to computational studies of molecular structure and behavior in any field of chemistry.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Natural Products invites and publishes papers that make substantial and scholarly contributions to the area of natural products research. Contributions may relate to the chemistry and/or biochemistry of naturally occurring compounds or the biology of living systems from which they are obtained.
Specifically, there may be articles that describe secondary metabolites of microorganisms, including antibiotics and mycotoxins; physiologically active compounds from terrestrial and marine plants and animals; biochemical studies, including biosynthesis and microbiological transformations; fermentation and plant tissue culture; the isolation, structure elucidation, and chemical synthesis of novel compounds from nature; and the pharmacology of compounds of natural origin.
When new compounds are reported, manuscripts describing their biological activity are much preferred.
