The Structural Properties of Odorants Modulate Their Association to Human Odorant Binding Protein

The binding of known odorant molecules to the human odorant-binding protein (hOBP) was evaluated <i>in silico.</i> Docking experiments elucidate the preferable binding site and binding affinity of odorant molecules to hOBP. The physicochemical properties molecular weight (MW), vapor pres...
