Katacine binds to the same binding site as rhodocytin based on molecular binding site prediction. Molecular docking has been performed using AutoDock vina and ADT for protein preparation. Grid boxes for binding prediction have covered the extracellular domain of CLEC-2, using the crystal structure of human CLEC-2 (PDB: 2C6U). Katacine can bind to a positive charge surface rich of arginine in the CLEC-2 extracellular domain (Arg-107, Arg-118, Arg-152, Arg-157) previously reported as the binding site for podoplanin and rhodocytin (enclosed in a red circle ), with a predicted binding energy of −6.6 kcal/mol.
