|-
|| '''Slide Number 11'''

'''Conclusion of the Analysis'''
|| Conclusion of the Analysis

The ligand is interacting mostly with the hydrophobic residues inside the binding pocket.

We found many non bonding interactions with the hydrophobic residues.

|-

|| '''Slide Number 12'''

'''Conclusion of the Analysis'''

|| Only a few hydrogen bonds a re expected.

We observed only two hydrogen bonds using the '''Structure Analysis tool.'''

|-
|| Cursor on the panel.
|| More hydrophobic groups on the''' indazole '''will increase the interaction and binding with the active site.

We can generate and analyze more conformers to understand the interactions better.

This brings us to the end of this tutorial.
