DOCK

• a molecular docking application that can be used to a) predict binding modes of small molecule-protein complexes; b)search databases of ligands for compounds that inhibit enzyme activity; c) search databases of ligands for compounds that bind a particular protein; d) search databases of ligands for compounds that bind nucleic acid targets; e) examine possible binding orientations of protein-protein and protein-DNA complexes; f) help guide synthetic efforts by examining small molecules that are computationally derivatized. A recent publication (see citations) describes how DOCK can be used to model RNA--small molecule complexes.
