Abstract
⺠Methods were developed to quantify similarity in inhibitor specificity for homologs. ⺠Homology-based process was developed to predict inhibitor specificity determinants. ⺠Eighteen DHFR positions that play a role in ligand specificity were identified. ⺠For these, amino acid sequence homology correlates with ligand specificity. ⺠Three are in active site, 5 near the active site, the rest may act allosterically.
