Blastermaster files

Meaning of the files created by Blastermaster. These are also documented with each associated program, but since Blastermaster is the widely used interface for docking, they are collected and organized here.

Blastermaster creates files in two directories, working and dockfiles. Only dockfiles is necessary for running DOCK 3.7. working contains intermediate files used in the preparation of the final dockfiles for docking.

dockfiles directory

posing

• matching_spheres.sph - spheres (hotspots)
• vdw.bmp - bump map to rapidly eliminate unproductive poses

scoring

• ligand.desolv.heavy - ligand desolvation scoring grid, non-H atoms
