Currently, there is high use of bioinformatics tools in biological studies. This Advance Bioinformatics course includes theory and practical aspects of molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation for you. In this course, we have tried to explain the theory and practical steps which are required to perform the above-mentioned bioinformatics techniques. We strongly believe that after having this course, you will be well versed in ligand-protein docking and molecular dynamics simulations.
This course is designed to keep the need of biologists in view. We tried to explain every step in a simple and elegant way. Like our previous course, “Learn Bioinformatics From Scratch (Theory & Practical)” in this course, we took start from scratch. So, if you are new in this field then it will be easy for you to move with the flow. There is a total of seven modules with 104 lectures. In this course, you will learn
(1) Protein Structural Bioinformatics
(2) Theory of Molecular Dynamics Simulation
(3) Introduction of Linux Environment
(4) Practical Demonstration of Protein Molecular Dynamics Simulation
(5) Ligand-Protein Docking (Theory & Practical)
(6) Practical Demonstration of Ligand-Protein Complex Molecular Dynamics Simulation
(7) Virtual Screening of Ligands with Protein Using Vina
This course is a unique blend of theory and practical. We assure you that after having this course, performing molecular docking and molecular dynamics will be easy for you. We have used open-source software in this course so that you do not need to purchase any expensive software. The tools which are demonstrated in this course are Modeller, I-TASSER, Alpha-Fold (Colab), Auto-dock4, Vina, Patch-Dock, GROMACS, LigPlot, ChemSketch, OpenBabel, Pymol, and a lot more. These tools are freely available and closely related to the course material, and students will need to sign up for some tools to access it.
So what are you waiting for? Click the enroll button and start this amazing journey. We hope that the content of this course will be worth your money. We assure every possible assistance throughout your learning process. We always respond to Questions and Queries which you will forward to us. We believe that we will grow with you.
Your growth is our growth.

Practical-8 Installation of GROMACS
Sometimes, the link that we have provided to you for the installation of GROMACS may be broken. In this case, please do not worry. Please let us tell you the other way to install the GROMACS
Step-1:
Please download the text file from the Resource section of the video. The file contains all of the necessary links and commands to install the GROMACS.
Using the Google Drive Link present in the text file that you have just downloaded, download the gromacs_install.sh file.
Step -2:
Once you download the file please move to the folder where you downloaded the above file. For instance, if you have downloaded the file in your D drive, then please move it to the D drive. How can you move to D Drive? Please use the following set of commands to move to your D drive:
Note: We are assuming that you are using WSL (Linux environment) in Windows. If you are using the full Linux operating system (Ubuntu) then there is no need to use the first command
cd /mnt
cd d
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
Note: In case you are using the full Ubuntu operating system then you can move to the folder directly. Let's assume that you have downloaded the file in the Download folder then you can use cd Downloads
Now please use the following commands to run the file that you have downloaded
sudo chmod +x gromacs_install.sh
./gromacs_install.sh
We hope this time you will not face any issues in the installation of GROMACS. In case of any further issues, please do not hesitate to contact us.
