[Chimera-users] Ligand Receptor docking

[Shriwas, Pratik]

Hi,

Thank you for your advice. I am grateful that you have let me know about the literature. I am sorry if it was offending for me to ask for papers.

I meant that sometimes when companies offer their products, they put a citations list. So, I asked. I am sorry.

Regards,
Pratik

Sorry, you will have to do your own literature searching!  This address is for help in using Chimera, not general research advice.  My statement was based on seeing Autodock Vina mentioned in many research papers over the years, but I don’t have a specific list.  You could just search for keywords like “vina” or “autodock vina”.  However,  people who use Autodock Vina are not necessarily using Chimera or the web service; many people download that software and use it directly.  It is developed by a group at Scripps:
