Chemical Superposition using APF - Ligand Based Screening
Next

Flexible chemical superposition onto one or several rigid templates using Atomic Property Fields(APF)

The Atomic Property Fields (APF) superposition/alignment method is published here. In 2010, Giganti et al reported on the high accuracy of ICM APF screening compared to other ligand-based methods.

  • -r : sample rings"
  • -R : rigid superposition"
  • -d : cis-trans sampling"
  • -F : calculate MMFF strain"
  • -S : output columns with the APF score components"
  • -s : output a column with the APF score"
  • -m : keep multiple alternative poses"
  • -O : score only, poses taken directly from input without sampling"
  • -o : downweight contributions by occupancy"
  • -e : penalize atoms outside the envelope of the template(s)"
  • -t : sample tautomers"
  • -c : charge ionizable groups according to built-in pKa model (VLS mode)"
  • exclude= : excluded volume points"
  • Xweight=(3.) : repulsion weight of the 'excluded volume' atoms"
  • APFcutoff=CUTOFFVALUE : output only compounds with the APF score better than specified cutoff (VLS mode)"
  • from= to= : go through the segment of the input database (parallelized VLS mode)"
