RNA molecules are involved in a wide range of biological processes and have been recognized as very important therapeutic targets. Mainly owing to the scarcity of information and experimental studies, the application of computational approaches and, in particular, of docking methodologies in the RNA field has developed slowly. However, in recent years the docking of RNA-binding ligands has experienced significant expansion. This article focuses attention on the docking of RNA-binding ligands, analyzing the development of RNA-docking approaches, the reliability of the docking methods and, finally, evaluating the results of docking-based virtual screening studies reported in the literature.
