SITEHOUND uses Molecular Interaction Fields (MIFs) produced by EASYMIFS to identify protein structure regions that show a high propensity for interaction with ligands. The type of binding site identified depends on the probe atom used in the MIF calculation. The input to EASYMIFS is a PDB. le of a protein structure; the output MIF serves as input to SITEHOUND, which in turn produces a list of putative binding sites. Extensive testing of SITEHOUND for the detection of binding sites for drug-like molecules and phosphorylated ligands has been carried out.
