Link to the survey paper: Geometric Deep Learning for Structure-Based Drug Design: A Survey

This repository contains a list of papers on the Structure-based Drug Design; we categorize them based on their detailed tasks and methods. Specifically, we focus our scope on tasks related to the protein-ligand binding interface, including binding site prediction, binding pose generation, de novo ligand generation, linker design, protein pocket generation, and binding affinity prediction.
