## Abstract An improved version of the fragmentโbased flexible ligand docking approach SEEDโFFLD is tested on inhibitors of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 protease, human ฮฑโthrombin and the estrogen receptor ฮฒ. The docking results indicate that it is possible to correctly reproduce the binding

โฆ Synopsis
Genetic algorithm GA combined with random search has been applied to thoroughly search the appropriate associated sites for both peptide and protein complexes. Steric complementarity and energetic complementarity of ligand with its receptor have been separately considered in our two-stage automated docking. Eight complexes have been randomly selected from the Protein Data Bank to test our procedure. Conformations and orientations close to the crystallographically determined ลฝ . structures are obtained. For most cases, the smallest RMS root mean square of distance of the GA solutions is smaller than 1.0.

The DOCK program explores possible orientations of a molecule within a macromolecular active site by superimposing atoms onto precomputed site points. Here we compare a number of different search methods, including an exhaustive matching algorithm based on a single docking graph. We evaluate the per
## Abstract We present an automated docking protocol specifically optimized to predict the structure and affinity of a proteinโcarbohydrate complex. A scoring function was developed based on a training set of 30 proteinโcarbohydrate complexes of known structure and affinity. Combinations of several
