Protein-Protein Docking is a powerful computational technique used to predict how two proteins interact and form stable complexes. By capturing protein shape, electrostatics, and local dynamics with the help of the JabberDock algorithm, Flare provides a reliable approach for studying protein-protein complexes, dimers, peptide interactions, and multimeric assemblies. If there is prior information about the proteins’ spatial orientation, constraints can also be applied to bias the results of the Docking calculation.
- Efficiently explores binding interfaces to give precise binding predictions
- Incorporates protein Dynamics to improve docking reliability beyond static structure-based methods
- User-friendly interface to set up and run the experiment: select the atoms to be constrained from the 3D window
- Fine-tune the settings of the experiment to customize the number of solutions, adjust the proximity of predicted ‘ligand’ poses to the receptor protein, and define the cut-off distance for valid interactions
