TABLE 1

Binding scores (kJ/mol) and carbonyl to hydride NADP distance (Å) obtained from minimum energy binding poses of known and possible substrates docked into 11β-HSD1 (PD BID: 2BEL) using MOE-Dock (Molecular Operating Environment 2008.10, Chemical Computing group, Montreal, Canada).

In silico predictions of potential 11β-HSD1 substrates are presented based on the range of binding scores and the hydride-carbonyl distance between NADPH and known substrates that flank possible substrate candidates. Structures of reference chemicals can be found in the supplemental information.
