Abstract (Summary of the Work)

The present dissertation attempts to employ hybrid genetic algorithms (GAS: ta solve the flerible-ligand docking problem i.e. predicting the binding conformation oi a flexible ligand molecule into a rigid protein. Our hybrid GA scheme uses the concept of Lamarckian genetics to perform a local search about an individual. followed by replacing it with a better soiution found in its neighborhood. Two local search schemes have been investigated and their performance relative to the standard GA have been compared. Preliminary results obtained on a set of three protein-ligand complexes have shown promising results.
