If you have the pKa for each of those three groups, then you can
calculate that yourself very quickly.

Subject: [gmx-users] Pioglitazone Tautomers

 

Hi All,

I am performing molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations of
the thiazolidinedione pioglitazone binding to the PPAR-gamma receptor
protein (PDB ID: 1ZGY).  The thiazolidinedione ring can exist in
numerous different tautomeric states; I have attached a figure depicting
several of them.  Which tautomer would be dominant at the physiological
pH of ~7.0?

Also, are there any software programs that can predict which tautomer
would be correct?

Thanks in advance,
Nancy
