DOCK is a suite of programs for molecular docking. In version 6.6 two new scoring functions are available: Grid-based footprint scoring and SASA-based scoring. The MultiGrid Footprint Score calculates the pair-wise interaction energies over multiple grids. Important receptor residues are initially identified with a reference ligand, and individual grids are generated to model such residues. The SASA score calculates the percent exposure of a ligand, and the percentage of the hydrophobic portion of a ligand and the receptor that are buried in the pocket. In addition, a symmetry corrected RMSD (Hungarian matching) method was added to facilitate pose reproduction studies.
