How to read this page
PDB: experimentally determined structures from the Protein Data Bank. These are the strongest structural evidence, but may cover only part of the protein.
AlphaFold DB model: a precomputed predicted structure downloaded from AlphaFold Database/UniProt, not an experiment performed here.
ColabFold model: a predicted structure generated for this workspace; interpret it with coverage and confidence.
pLDDT: confidence score for predicted structures. High values support local geometry; low values mean the region should not drive pocket interpretation.
FPocket / P2Rank: software tools that predict possible ligand-binding pockets on a 3D structure. They are useful screening signals, not experimental validation.
Druggability: a pocket-based estimate of whether a small molecule could bind productively. It does not mean a drug already exists.
PDB ligand: a compound observed in an experimental structure. Direct same-protein records are stronger than homolog-transferred records.
ChEMBL: a public database of measured compound bioactivity. Direct entries are stronger than entries transferred from similar proteins.
ZINC: a purchasable-compound database. Here it marks proposed candidates from chemical similarity, not measured binders.
LigQ / LigQ_2: an internal TPW pipeline step that gathers PDB, ChEMBL, and ZINC ligand evidence for each protein.
Off-target: sequence similarity to proteins we prefer not to hit, such as human proteins or beneficial gut microbiome proteins.
DEG: Database of Essential Genes. A match suggests the protein resembles genes known to be essential in other organisms.
Roary / CoreCruncher: pan-genome tools used to decide whether a gene is core across analyzed strains or accessory/strain-specific.
EC / GO: functional annotations: EC describes enzyme reactions; GO describes biological process, molecular function, or cellular component.
KEGG pathway: a curated metabolic route label used here to group reactions imported from the metabolic model.
Chokepoint: a metabolic reaction that is the only producer or consumer of a metabolite in the imported model.

Selected pocket evidence
The selected pocket score is the FPocket value used for ranking after applying the curated structure priority. It estimates small-molecule pocket quality; it is not experimental binding evidence. The 3D viewer may show a different loaded structure, so visible pockets can differ.

In biologically catalyzed reactions, the reactants are known as substrates, and the catalysts are naturally occurring macromolecular substances known as enzymes. Enzymes possess specific binding sites for substrates, and are usually composed wholly or largely of protein, but RNA that has catalytic activity (ribozyme) is often also regarded as enzymatic.
