AutoDock is is a suite of automated docking tools. It is designed to predict how small molecules, such as substrates or drug candidates, bind to a receptor of known 3D structure. It has applications in:
• X-ray crystallography
• structure-based drug design
• lead optimization
• virtual screening (HTS)
• combinatorial library design
• protein-protein docking
• chemical mechanism studies
For new users, please refer to the userguide and examples in : /app1/common/autodock/autodocksuite-4.0.1/examples
To access autodock utilities, please add this line into your .bash_profile file in your home directory:
PATH=$PATH:/app1/common/autodock/autodocksuite-4.0.1/share
For csh/tcsh shell users, please add this line into your .cshrc file in your home directory:
set path=($path /app1/common/autodock/autodocksuite-4.0.1/share )
Using autogrid4 to generate grid maps: autogrid4 -p your_file.gpf -l your_file.glg
Using autodock4 to perform docking: autodock4 -p your_file.dpf -l yourfile.dlg
Submitting autodock job to atlas2 or atlas3 cluster via LSF: bsub -q linux64 “autodock4 -p your_file.dpf -l your_file.dlg”
Autodock Tools, Python Molecular Viewer, VISION (Visual Program Environment)
These tools are available on MobileVisLab, type adt, pmv or vision at the command prompt to start them.
