MCCS (Molecular Complex Characterizing System) examples for papers published on BIB (Briefing in Bioinformatics)
Example 1: GPCR
In this MCCS example, we used MCCS to perform systems pharmocological analysis on the determined X-ray-crystal or cryo-EM structures of G protein-coupled receptors. Please see our paper for detailed discussion.

Example 2: COVID-19
In this example, we performed MCCS virtual screening against the determined SARS-CoV-2 3CLpro structure using approved drugs on DrugBank. Please see our paper for detailed discussion.
