I am a Ph.D. student of Pharmaceutics at University of the Pacific. Recently in our lab we were trying to do some docking of our peptide ligands on the human Aminopeptidase N (CD13) receptor using the Autodock vina option in the Chimera. But everytime we are getting an error message and the docking stops. I am attaching the error message here. We did dockprep of the receptor and ligands. And we tried to do the docking with both pdb and mol2 files.<br>> <br>> We would really appreciate your help in this regard.<br>> Thanks,<br>> Md Zahir Uddin<br><br></body></html>
