Eventually you will have to make the mutant for a reviewer. So in silico will only give you perhaps some ideas but there's no way of avoiding wetlab.

Thanks! I think we still can't tell if the mutant would disturb ligand binding or not.
Best!

Yes, it is better to have MD or energy minimization. Otherwise, with only view on the screen, we can't tell if the mutated residue would disturb ligand binding because of the side chain flexibility.

Pymol
the question is, into how much trouble do you want to get ?
MD simulations ? Energy minimisation ? Then you will need to do more than just mutate on the sreen one residue with Pymol.

Dear All,
I am trying to mutate a single amino acid in a PDB to see if the mutant disturbs ligand binding. Does anyone know any software that can do such work?
Thanks a lot!
