2022 Denovo tutorial 1 with PDBID 6ME2
From Rizzo_Lab
This article is a continuation of PDBID 6ME2, with the previous one detailing how to run a virtual screen on this protein. This article will detail how to run a focused de novo design experiment on 6ME2.

I. De novo design
- Define and describe difference between focused and generic de novo design*
Generating a fragment library
Focused de novo growth
Focused de novo rescore
Now that we have generated our molecules from the de novo growth, we can rescore them based on different characteristics of the molecules in order to get a better idea of which ones are better for in vitro binding. In order to do this, make a directory called 012_dn_rescore and cd into it. We now need to generate an input file and a submit file. For the input file, vi into dn_rescore.in and write the following to that file:
