Simple Ligand–Receptor Interaction Descriptor (SILIRID) for alignment-free binding site comparison

We describe SILIRID (Simple Ligand–Receptor Interaction Descriptor), a novel fixed size descriptor characterizing protein–ligand interactions. SILIRID can be obtained from the binary interaction fingerprints (IFPs) by summing up the bits corresponding to identical amino acids. This results in a vect...
