Read the manual ?
I think you should read this tutorial on how to post questions on a forum first though.
If you do want help helpful information about analyzing Patch Dock results, you can open PDB files with Pymol.
Output
The ouput of PatchDock is a list of candidate complexes between user specified receptor and ligand molecule. The list is presented to the user in the format of a table, each table line represents one candidate complex.
Table Format:
Solution No: Number of the solution
Score: Geometric shape complementarity score (see reference 1 for details). The solutions are sorted according to this score.
Area: Approximate interface area of the complex.
ACE: Atomic contact energy according to Zhang et al. (see reference 2).
Transformation: 3D transformation: 3 rotational angles and 3 translational parameters. The transformation should be applied on the ligand molecule.
PDB file of the complex: The predicted complex structure in PDB format.
Download PDB files with complexes:
In addition, the server provides an option to download up to 100 top ranking candidate complexes in the PDB format in one zipped file. The user may specify the number of solutions and the server will prepare a Zip file for download.

Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.

Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.
There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...07-08-2026, 05:17 AM
