ABSTRACT:
A method for evaluating the binding of an evaluation target molecule with respect to a macromolecular compound based on numerical calculations and which detects the binding sites of the evaluation target molecule with respect to the macromolecular compound as a site where electronic states in a predetermined restricted region including the evaluation target molecule and the part of the macromolecular compound, which is adjacent to the evaluation target molecule, are unstable.
