Description
A sampling and docking program.
The S4MPLE program is by design providing an unified approach to all subclasses of conformational sampling problems : it is competent for conformational sampling (including small protein folding), rigid docking, flexible docking (including whole flexible protein loops, not only side chains), multi-ligand docking (simultaneous docking of several fragment-like binders, or docking with mobile waters), covalent docking (docking of a ligand moiety only, while the other half is already placed in the site and fixed – useful in ligand growths/fragment linking in fragment-based drug design), molecular self-assembly (the “site” needs not be a protein – no requirements to have a site made of aminoacid residues).
