[Chimera-users] Ligand Receptor docking

[Shriwas, Pratik]

Thank you!


Can you send me some publications list which used Chimera (autodock vina). Is there a link where I can find this?

Hi Pratik Shriwas,
You have to use your own scientific judgment for questions like this.  If you mean that you used the Autodock Vina tool in Chimera, it is just an interface to an Autodock Vina webservice provided by another lab, as described in the Chimera Help:
<http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/ContributedSoftware/vina/vina.html>
Many publications use Autodock Vina docking, but this web service does not allow for very much sampling because it is a free service used by lots of people.
Best,
Elaine
