DOCK 6 is a general purpose molecular docking program developed by the Kuntz Laboratory at UCSF. DOCK 6 (released summer 2006) replaced DOCK 5 (2001-2006), which is no longer available. DOCK 5 was a complete re-write of DOCK 4 (1998-2002), which itself was a complete re-design and re-write of DOCK 3.5 (released 1993-1994).

DOCK 6 is coded mainly in C++. Using the object oriented model, it is functionally separated into independent components (classes, methods), allowing a high degree of modularity and programming flexibility. Accessory programs are written in a variety of languages including C and Fortran 77. Source code is available for all programs. The DOCK suite of programs requires on the order of 50 MB of disk space and 512 MB RAM. Some runs may require considerably more disk space and more memory.
