Figure 1

Graphic representation of oestrogen receptor-alpha activation function 2 pocket and in silico screening pipeline. (A) Graphic representation of the activation function 2 (AF2) site on the surface of the oestrogen receptor-alpha (ERα) ligand-binding domain (LBD) [PDB:3UUD] AF2 pocket is shown in cyan, coactivator in magenta and oestradiol (E2) in green. (B) Virtual screening protocol used for the discovery of AF2 binders. The numbers indicate compounds obtained after each screening step. eHiTS, Electronic high-throughput screening; r.m.s.d., Root mean square deviation.
