DOCK Blaster is a program that does automatic docking.  
DOCK Blaster is a free web based molecular docking and virtual screening service, on the web at [http://blaster.docking.org http://blaster.docking.org]. To get started, you will need at least:
* The structure of the target in PDB format (preferred) or mol2 format
* A specification of the binding site, which may be one of:
** A docked ligand in mol2 format, which is also used to test the docking parameterization
** "hot spots", in PDB format, which may be based on one or more ligands.
** Atoms of residues forming the binding site. The center of inertia of these atoms should coincide with where you expect the ligand to go.


That's really all you need to get started. If you don't have a particular project in mind, and you are just curious about DOCK Blaster, you may use some [[DOCK Blaster:Sample_Data | sample data]] to experiment. To read more, please consult the topics below.

DOCK Blaster is a program that does automatic docking.

The first version of DOCK Blaster appeared in 2009. Please see Category:DOCK_Blaster

A re-write of the idea of DOCK Blaster, blastermaster.py, was part of the DOCK 3.7 release in 2012.

In 2022 there were major developments. First, we reorganized the DOCK repo into three repos:

  • dock3 - the fortran source code and not much else
  • pydock3 - all the scripts to run docking except for 3d ligand building
  • ligdock3 - 3d ligand building pipeline

There is also

  • cheminftools - various tools.

DOCK is distributed via the dock license server dock.compbio.ucsf.edu where it is licensed for free to academics and for a small fee to companies.

The name of all the software together is "UCSF DOCK" and the current version is 3.8.1.0.0, so "UCSF DOCK 3.8.1.0.0"

The automatic pipeline to run docking is "dockopt", which is part of pydock3

The website that allows free public preparation of receptors for docking is called "dockopt".
