ERα-LBD Complexes: X-ray Crystal Structures of Ligand Binding

Xiaohui Liu published this dataset on figshare in June 2026. It contains characteristics of X-ray crystal structures for complexes formed between the Estrogen Receptor Alpha Ligand-Binding Domain (ERα-LBD) and several ligands, including E2, 4-OHT, BPA, BPAF, and BPC. The dataset is stored in a 9.5 KB XLS file.

Use Cases

• Compare structural parameters of ERα-LBD bound to different ligands based on the described complexes.
• Analyze binding site characteristics for endocrine-disrupting chemicals like BPA and its analogs based on the crystal structure data.
• Train or validate molecular docking models using structural features from the described protein-ligand complexes.

Strengths

• Dataset is openly available under a CC-BY-4.0 license.
• Data is focused on a specific protein domain (ERα-LBD) and a defined set of ligands, providing a clear scope.

Limitations

• Dataset is very small at 9.5 KB, indicating limited scope.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
