Abstract: A computer-aided docking study was carried out to quickly clarify the binding structure of the ligand-receptor complex between bisphenol A (BPA), a well-known endocrine disruptor, and estrogen-related receptor γ (ERRγ). The resulting complex indicated that BPA binds to the ligand-binding pocket of ERRγ without any disruptions of the activation conformation.
