Focused Denovo Design

In this tutorial, we will be making a focus fragment library from the crystallographic ligand for PDB 1X70 and then attempting to rebuild the cognate ligand with the library we generated.

Ligand Fragmentation

ATTENTION: This tutorial requires you to have first completed the 2022 1X70 VS tutorial: https://ringo.ams.stonybrook.edu/index.php/2022_DOCK_tutorial_3_with_PDBID_1X70

Make a new directory:

 mkdir 09.focus_dn

Now inside 09.focus_dn, make the following DOCK6 input file: "fraglib.in"

 conformer_search_type                                        flex

 dock6 -i fraglib.in -o fraglib.out

You should end up with 5 different files:

 "fraglib_rigid.mol2  fraglib_scaffold.mol2  fraglib_sidechain.mol2  fraglib_torenv.dat fraglib_linker.mol2"

Each file contains fragments defined by the number of places they were cut at during fragment generation.

Now load up Chimera:

 Tools > Binding/Surface Analysis > View Dock > Load fraglib_linker.mol2


All of the linkers from fraglib_linker.mol2, fragments with 2 non-Hydrogen rotatable bonds in 715
 Load fraglib_sidechain.mol2
All of the sidechains from fraglib_sidechain.mol2, fragments with 1 non-Hydrogen rotatable bonds in 715
 Load both 
All of the fragments from 715 loaded in (bottom, sea blue) and 715.mol2 (top)

 dock6 -i focus.in -o focus.out

You should get the following file: "dn_focus.out.denovo_build.mol2"

Load in the denovo results Chimera using viewdock, then load in the refence ligand:

 Tools > general controls > model panel > set the reference ligand to inactive and then move the fragments so they are not overlayed
The first dozen focus denovo results and the view dock interface
The top scoring pose from the focus denovo (top) and the original pose of crystallographic ligand (bottom)

As we can see, the top scoring poses consist of the original crystallographic ligand in various posses.
