BioLiP
BioLiP is a semi-manually curated database for high-quality, biologically relevant ligand-protein binding interactions. The structure data are collected primarily from the Protein Data Bank (PDB), with biological insights mined from literature and other specific databases. BioLiP aims to construct the most comprehensive and accurate database for serving the needs of ligand-protein docking, virtual ligand screening and protein function annotation. Questions about the BioLiP Database can be posted at the Service System Discussion Board.

Since ligand molecules (e.g., Glycerol, Ethylene glycol) are often used as additives (i.e., false positives) for solving the protein structures, not all ligands present in the PDB database are biologically relevant. BioLiP uses a composite automated and manual procedure for examining the biological relevance of ligands in the PDB database. Each entry in BioLiP contains a comprehensive list of annotations on:

  • ligand-binding residues;
  • ligand binding affinity (from the original literature, plus Binding MOAD, PDBbind-CN, BindingDB);
  • catalytic site residues (mapped from Mechanism and Catalytic Site Atlas);
  • Enzyme Commission (EC) numbers and Gene Ontology (GO) terms mapped by the SIFTS database;
  • crosslinks to external databases, including RCSB PDB, PDBe, PDBj, PDBsum, Binding MOAD, PDBbind-CN, Mechanism and Catalytic Site Atlas, QuickGO, ExPASy ENZYME, ChEMBL, DrugBank, ZINC, UniProt, PubMed.
  • In Feburary 2023, BioLiP was updated to BioLiP2, where newly added features are explained here.
