Input, Output and Interface

According to Patchdock algorithm, once the docking compounds submitted, the server will automatically initiate the process.

 

Input

Patchdock algorithms will take molecule only in PDB format. The molecules are either uploaded or enter directly the PDB file Registered Number or PDB code. And the solution file will come to your given electronic mail.

Some important points:

– the value of RMSD or Root mean square deviation is a numerical or positive number which specifies the diameter of algorithms. And the default value of RMSD is 4 A.

– Patchdock web servers has different parameters, sets for different types of complexes of models. This program will also have a default configuration.

-the uploaded file must have a suitable format such as PDB format.

 

Output

Output is defined as outcome of the molecule interaction which is like a web page that represents the various solution files. These solution files generated automatically by Patchdock algorithms. After submission input, the user will get a Solution mail from Patchdock in which 20 different structures and atomic binding energy.
