Since there may some on this bb who have modelers as colleagues... On behalf of the PSI GPCR Network group:
------------------------------ Dear GPCR modeling and docking researcher, We are writing to announce the 3rd round of the GPCR Docking and Modeling Assessment, GPCR Dock 2013, and to invite you to submit your predictions of GPCR-ligand structures for comparison prior to publication of the results. The first two GPCR Dock assessments were conducted in 2008 and 2010 and were based on the structures of A2A adenosine receptor (GPCR Dock 2008; NRDD 2009), dopamine D3 receptor and chemokine receptor CXCR4 (GPCR Dock 2010; Structure 2011). As before, the results from GPCR Dock 2013 will be published once an analysis is complete. The present round of the assessment will be focused on four target complexes. Participants can choose to predict any one, two, three, or all four targets. Predicting all four targets is strongly encouraged. Registered participants will receive receptor and ligand information at midnight (Pacific standard time) on Feb 1st, and will have until midnight (PST) March 3rd (30 days) to deposit models. Further information about the assessment and registration forms to participate can be found at http://gpcr.scripps.edu/GPCRDock2013 If you have any questions, please email (gpcrd...@scripps.edu) we will try to get back to you quickly and will also post any general comments to all registered participants.
