This tutorial teaches you how to dock a drug molecule to a receptor.
/*This page is under construction*/
Contents
I. Introduction
DOCK
DOCK is an important molecular docking program in molecular modeling and drug design. It enables you to dock a small molecule (ligand) to a binding pocket of certain protein target (receptor) and find out correct binding geometry, types and number of interactions involve in binding and energies associate with binding. For this tutorial DOCK6.9 package was used. Purpose of using DOCK6.9 in this tutorial is to re-dock a ligand to a binding pocket of the receptor protein for pose reproduction and find out lead compounds which have stronger binding affinity with our receptor binding site.
Virtual Screening
This is a protocol widely used in drug design which enable you to find out small molecules that have higher binding affinity with the binding pocket of protein of interest by screening a millions of compounds in a virtual database (such as ZINC).
Organization of directories
Log in to the seawulf cluster and go to your group directory. Use following command to create files.
mkdir 001.files 002.surface_spheres 003.gridbox 004.dock 005.virtual_screen 006.virtual_screen_mpi 007.cartesianmin 008.rescore
4F4P
4F4P is the crystal structure of Tyrosine Kinase SYK in complex with ligand LASW836. You can get the pdb file from here [1]. The resolution is 2.37 Å. Click Download Files -> PDB Format to download PDB file.
II. Preparation of the ligand and receptor
Checking the structure
Read the article related to the PDB file [2] to understand protonation states, charges and other important information regarding the receptor and the ligand.
Open the pdb file through chimera and look at the structure.
Identify the main components of the model (receptor, ligand, solvent, cofactors). In our case, the PDB file contains one protein chain, ligand(OSB), sulfate ion(SO4(2-)) as a cofactor and water molecules (H2O).
Next, we are going to generate the receptor file and the ligand file.
Prepare the Receptor file
With the PDB file loaded by chimera, do
Select -> Residue -> SO4
to select the sulfate. Use
Actions -> Atoms/Bonds -> Delete
to delete it. Then do
Select -> Residue -> HOH
to select the water molecules. Use the same method to delete it. Then do
Select -> Structure -> (0SB)
to select ligand molecule. Use the same method to delete it. Save the receptor as 4f4p_rec_noh.mol2.
OR
With the PDB file loaded by chimera, hold the control button and click on the protein chain to select a protein residue. Then click up arrow button to select the whole protein chain (Receptor). Then
Select -> Invert(all models)
to invert your selection (This will select all the components in your PDB file except receptor). Then do
Actions->Atoms/bonds->Delete.
You will remain with a protein receptor. Save the receptor as 4f4p_rec_noh.mol2.
Prepare the Ligand File
Open the pdf file again. Do
Select -> Structure -> ligand(0SB)
to select the ligand. Do
Select -> Invert (all models),
then delete the selected atoms. This will left the ligand molecule only. Save it as 4f4p_lig_noh.mol2.
Adding hydrogen and charge
Now we are going to add hydrogen atoms and charges to our receptor and ligand. Open 4f4p_rec_noh.mol2 file using Chimera and use the following instructions to prepare the receptor file to be used in DOCK. Tools -> Structure editing -> AddH. This command will add hydrogen to the receptor. Tools -> Structure editing -> Add Charge. This command will add charge to atoms to make the receptor neutral. Save the file as 4f4p_rec_h.mol2
Open 4f4p_lig_noh.mol2, follow the same steps for ligand file, add hydrogen. The Chimera added 2 hydrogens to the nitrogen where it is supposed to be only one, as referred in the pdb report. So remove one hydrogen.
(Hold Ctrl and select extra H, then Actions -> Atoms/Bonds -> delete.) (Therefore, Be really concern when adding Hydrogens using chimera since it is automatically adding unwanted hydrogen atoms. Compare your protonation state with PDB report and make sure you have correct structure after adding hydrogens.)
After removing hydrogen add charges to the ligand
Tools -> Structure editing -> Add Charge. After this save the file as 4f4p_lig_h.mol2.
copy the 4f4p_rec_h.mol2, 4f4p_rec_noh.mol2, 4f4p_lig_noh.mol2, 4f4p_lig_h.mol2 files in to 001.files directory
III. Generating receptor surface and spheres
Creating a surface (DMS) file
Open the 4f4p_rec_noh.mol2 file in chimera. Then Action -> surface -> show -> Shows the surface of the receptor without H.
Tools -> Structure editing -> write DMS -> name: 4f4p_rec_noh.dms -> This command saves the surface of the receptor in dms format.
copy the 4f4p_rec.dms file in to 002.surface_spheres directory.
Generating spheres
Go to 002.surface_spheres folder Create a new input file to create spheres by
vi INSPH
then type the following lines inside the file.
4f4p_rec_noh.dms R X 0.0 4.0 1.4 4f4p_rec.sph
The first line 4f4p_rec_noh.dms specifies the input file. R indicates that spheres generated will be outside of the receptor surface. X specifies all the points will be used. 0.0 is the distance in angstroms and it will avoid steric clashes. 4.0 is the maximum surface radius of the spheres and 1.4 is the minimum radius in angstroms.The last line 4f4p_rec.sph creates the sph file that contains clustered spheres.
Once the INSPH file is ready, type the following command to generate the spheres.
sphgen -i INSPH -o OUTSPH
Once sphgen command is successful, following output files will be created.
OUTSPH 4f4p_rec.sph
Open the f4p_rec.sph using Chimera along with 4f4p_rec_noh.mol2 file. You should get a similar output like the image below.
Selecting Spheres
Here we will be selecting the spheres which defines the binding pocket of the ligand because we are trying to direct the ligand towards that binding site rather than all over the receptor. To select the spheres type the following command.
sphere_selector 4f4p_rec.sph ../001.files/4f4p_noh_lig.mol2 10.0
This command will select all of the spheres within 10.0 angstroms of the ligand and output them to selected_spheres.sph.
Output files:
selected_spheres.sph
Visualize the selected spheres using Chimera to make sure the correct spheres are selected. Notice that, spheres around the ligand binding site are kept and all the other spheres are deleted by following sphere selector command .
IV. Generating box and grid
Generating box
Move to 003.gridbox directory Create a new file showbox.in and write the following lines in the file(# means comment ).
Y #Say 'Yes' to make a box 8.0 #The boundary of the box is at least 8 Angstroms from any spheres ../002.surface_spheres/selected_spheres.sph #The location and file name of the sphere file 1 #Use the first cluster of spheres (only 1 cluster in this case) 4f4p.box.pdb #The output filename
Use the following command to generate the box.
showbox < showbox.in
If this step is successful, you should see a new file (4f4p.box.pdb) in 003.gridbox folder.
Output file:
4f4p.box.pdb
Generating Grid
Create a new input file called grid.in and write the following information there.
compute_grids yes grid_spacing 0.4 output_molecule no contact_score no energy_score yes energy_cutoff_distance 9999 atom_model a attractive_exponent 6 repulsive_exponent 9 distance_dielectric yes dielectric_factor 4 bump_filter yes bump_overlap 0.75 receptor_file ../001.files/4f4p_rec_h.mol2 box_file 4f4p.box.pdb vdw_definition_file /gpfs/projects/AMS536/zzz.programs/dock6.9_release/parameters/vdw_AMBER_parm99.defn score_grid_prefix grid
save the file and run the following command.
grid -i grid.in -o grid.out
If this is successful, you will get following output files.
grid.out grid.nrg grid.bmp
V. Docking
Energy minimization
Before doing docking pose reproduction, energy minimization can be done in order to remove unfavorable intra-molecular clashes of the ligand. (If not it will affect the later steps of docking)
Go to 004.dock folder and open a file called min.in and type the following content there.
conformer_search_type rigid use_internal_energy yes internal_energy_rep_exp 12 internal_energy_cutoff 100.0 ligand_atom_file ../001.files/4f4p_lig_h.mol2 limit_max_ligands no skip_molecule no read_mol_solvation no calculate_rmsd yes use_rmsd_reference_mol ../001.files/4f4p_lig_h.mol2 use_database_filter no orient_ligand no bump_filter no score_molecules yes contact_score_primary no contact_score_secondary no grid_score_primary yes grid_score_secondary no grid_score_rep_rad_scale 1 grid_score_vdw_scale 1 grid_score_es_scale 1 grid_score_grid_prefix ../003.gridbox/grid multigrid_score_secondary no dock3.5_score_secondary no continuous_score_secondary no footprint_similarity_score_secondary no pharmacophore_score_secondary no descriptor_score_secondary no gbsa_zou_score_secondary no gbsa_hawkins_score_secondary no SASA_score_secondary no amber_score_secondary no minimize_ligand yes simplex_max_iterations 1000 simplex_tors_premin_iterations 0 simplex_max_cycles 1 simplex_score_converge 0.1 simplex_cycle_converge 1.0 simplex_trans_step 1.0 simplex_rot_step 0.1 simplex_tors_step 10.0 simplex_random_seed 0 simplex_restraint_min yes simplex_coefficient_restraint 10.0 atom_model all vdw_defn_file /gpfs/projects/AMS536/zzz.programs/dock6.9_release/parameters/vdw_AMBER_parm99.defn flex_defn_file /gpfs/projects/AMS536/zzz.programs/dock6.9_release/parameters/flex.defn flex_drive_file /gpfs/projects/AMS536/zzz.programs/dock6.9_release/parameters/flex_drive.tbl ligand_outfile_prefix 4f4p.lig.min write_orientations no num_scored_conformers 1 rank_ligands no
Save the file and run the following command.
dock6 -i min.in -o min.out
If you have done correctly, you will get followig out files.
min.out 4f4p.lig.min_scored.mol2
Footprint Analysis
In order to see the minimized ligand compared to the original ligand through footprint analysis, open a file called footprint.in and type following.
conformer_search_type rigid use_internal_energy no ligand_atom_file 4f4p.lig.min_scored.mol2 limit_max_ligands no skip_molecule no read_mol_solvation no calculate_rmsd no use_database_filter no orient_ligand no bump_filter no score_molecules yes contact_score_primary no contact_score_secondary no grid_score_primary no grid_score_secondary no multigrid_score_primary no multigrid_score_secondary no dock3.5_score_primary no dock3.5_score_secondary no continuous_score_primary no continuous_score_secondary no footprint_similarity_score_primary yes footprint_similarity_score_secondary no fps_score_use_footprint_reference_mol2 yes fps_score_footprint_reference_mol2_filename ../001.files/4f4p_lig_h.mol2 fps_score_foot_compare_type Euclidean fps_score_normalize_foot no fps_score_foot_comp_all_residue yes fps_score_receptor_filename ../001.files/4f4p_rec_h.mol2 fps_score_vdw_att_exp 6 fps_score_vdw_rep_exp 9 fps_score_vdw_rep_rad_scale 1 fps_score_use_distance_dependent_dielectric yes fps_score_dielectric 4.0 fps_score_vdw_fp_scale 1 fps_score_es_fp_scale 1 fps_score_hb_fp_scale 0 pharmacophore_score_secondary no descriptor_score_secondary no gbsa_zou_score_secondary no gbsa_hawkins_score_secondary no SASA_score_secondary no amber_score_secondary no minimize_ligand no atom_model all vdw_defn_file /gpfs/projects/AMS536/zzz.programs/dock6.9_release/parameters/vdw_AMBER_parm99.defn flex_defn_file /gpfs/projects/AMS536/zzz.programs/dock6.9_release/parameters/flex.defn flex_drive_file /gpfs/projects/AMS536/zzz.programs/dock6.9_release/parameters/flex_drive.tbl ligand_outfile_prefix fps.min.output write_footprints yes write_hbonds yes write_orientations no num_scored_conformers 1 rank_ligands no
If footprint runs successfully, you can find the following files generated
footprint.out fps.min.output_footprint_scored.txt fps.min.output_hbond_scored.txt fps.min.output_scored.mol2
In order to visualize the footprint, first we need to copy a python script into our directory, then run it:
cp /gpfs/projects/AMS536/zzz.programs/plot_footprint_single_magnitude.py ./ python plot_footprint_single_magnitude.py fps.min.output_footprint_scored.txt 50
A pdf document named fps.min.output_footprint_scored.txt.pdf will be generated. It looks like this:

Run dock using the created input file.
dock6 -i rigid.in -o rigid.out
Once rigid docking is successful, you will get following output files.
rigid.out rigid.out_conformers.mol2 rigid.out_scored.mol2
In order to check the rigid docking success, open rigid.out_scored.mol2 output file using Chimera by following steps.
Open Chimera File -> Open -> 4f4p_rec_h.mol2 (Actions -> Surface -> Show) File -> Open -> 4f4p_lig_h.mol2 Tools -> Surface/binding Analysis -> ViewDock -> Select the Rigid Dock output file. (rigid.out_scored.mol2) In the loaded dialog box select Dock4,5 or 6
Once everything is loaded go to the ViewDock window and use it's menu to view all the calculated properties regarding the rigid docked ligand by following the steps below.
Column -> Show -> Grid_Score Column -> Show -> HA_RMSDs
Follow the same steps to get all different properties as you interested.
You can choose different conformations from the ViewDock window. If you sorted it, the top one should be the conformation with lowest energy. Your visualized structure should be similar to the image below.

Once flexible docking is completed following output files will be generated.
flex.out flex.out_scored.mol2
Use the visualization steps used in rigid and fixed anchor docking and study the properties of the docking results by opening flex.out_scored.mol2 file. (You will get one confirmation since you're writing num_scored_conformers as one in the above script.)
VI. Virtual Screen
Virtual screening is the method of screening a ligand library (drug-like molecules) to filter the best ligands which can bind to the binding site of a specific receptor. Here we will be using a ligand library which contains 25000 molecules to select the best ligands which can be used to replace the original ligand that the PDB file contained.
Move to the directory 005.virtual_screen.
Copy the ligand library to the same directory.
cp /gpfs/projects/AMS536/2020/536_class/VS_library_5K.mol2 ./
Create a new input file for virtual screen.

You can run this job on head node for a short while, just to make sure everything is fine. Then you can kill the job by Ctrl-C.
We will run the job on the seawulf with slurm with the script. Creat the virtual.sh file
vi virtual.sh
the script show below
#!/bin/sh #SBATCH --partition=long-40core #SBATCH --time=48:00:00 #SBATCH --nodes=1 #SBATCH --ntasks=1 #SBATCH --job-name=........#whatever you want #SBATCH --output=%x-%j.o dock6 -i virtual.in -o virtual.out
Send job on seawulf using
sbatch virtual.sh
VII. Check Virtual Screen output
The job was terminated due to time limit. In order to calculate how many molecules were screened, we run the command:
grep "Molecule: ZINC" virtual.out | wc -l
Every in our group has either 1066, 1068, 1061 molecules.
To vizualize the output, we open the file virtual.out_scored.mol2 with Chimera. The Chimera could be slow as there are many many molecules. Go to Tools -> Surface binding Analysis -> View Dock. Also open the receptor in this session.
Column -> Show -> Grid Score
Column -> Show -> Mass weight
We see that best Grid scored molecules have higher energy than those that have lower Grid score energy. The vdv energy also have the same trend with Grid score.
