Abstract
Binding mode calculations for complexes between an artificial paracyclophane receptor and digoxins, cholic acids as well as cortisone steroids show encapsulation of different ring combinations. Docking experiments were performed between the 26-10 antibody and digoxins. Coordination affinity arises from hydrophobic desolvation and van der Waals interactions rather than from hydrogen bonds. The specificity and affinity arises mainly from shape complementarity. Computed binding free energies and Kohonen neural network computations both point to physicochemical and structural similarities of natural antibodies and artificial receptors.

The lowest energy binding mode in the complex of 3 with chenodeoxycholic acid, 9, was not considered here, as the steroid structure is outside the cavity and bound by hydrogen bonds, which likely will be broken in polar solvents.
