De novo design with PDB 1C87 focused fragment library
Preparing The Files
First of all, we need to create a directory for the fragment library.
mkdir fraglib
Move to fraglib directory and create an input file, fraglib.in

fraglib_linker.mol2, fraglib_rigid.mol2, fraglib_scaffold.mol2, fraglib_scored.mol2, fraglib_sidechain.mol2 and fraglib_torenv.dat will be created. You can check how many linkers and side chains are in your system.
[seshin@login fraglib]$ grep -wc MOLECULE fraglib_linker.mol2 3 [seshin@login fraglib]$ grep -wc MOLECULE fraglib_sidechain.mol2 1
There are 3 linkers and 1 side chain. Once fraglib output files are created, makedenovo.in input file and run it interactively.

Denovo Rescore
Create a directory for denovo rescore.
mkdir denovo_rescore
Make sure you have 1c87.final.denovo_build.mol2 file in your directory and lig_withH_charge_1c87.mol2 file will be your reference. (NOTE: Tantamoto is a chemical similarity. 1.0 means identical to the reference. )

devono_rescore.out_scored.mol2 will be created. Open Chimera and load lig_withH_charge_1c87.mol2 file and viewdock to open devono_rescore.out_scored.mol2
De novo design with PDB 1C87 generic fragment library
Assembling your fragment library
For this method we are using a generic set of fragments which we will use to grow our ligands. Like with the focused library, the traits of the cognate ligand will guide our designing algorithm so that we do not get anything too far-fetched.
We will be using a generic library provided in the dock6 distribution in the parameters directory.
Make a new directory for these calculations
mkdir denovo_growth_generic
Now we will need an input file like before, but we will take a closer look at some of the parameters. In particular, we want to make sure we are using an appropriate amount of starting fragments (not too many or it will be a combinatorial explosion).
