UHBD protocol


setting the grid

The right size of the grid for UHBD calculations was determined by superposition of sample structures of the relevant serine proteases and align them to 1o5a. Used sample structures:


uPA
1lmw
thrombin
1a2c
factor Xa
1fax
trypsin
2ptn
plasmin
1bui
tPA
1a5h

final UHBD input files:

desolv1_35.inp
desolv2_35.inp

best compiled UHBD version: /sw/mcm/app/uhbd/uhbd_linux_pp/uhbd110_PGFathlon

read mol 1 file protein.qcd qcard end
read mol 2 file ligand.qcd qcard end

write grid binary file focus_bin.grd end
