Efficient consideration of coordinated water molecules improves computational protein-protein and protein-ligand docking discrimination.

Highly coordinated water molecules are frequently an integral part of protein-protein and protein-ligand interfaces. We introduce an updated energy model that efficiently captures the energetic effects of these ordered water molecules on the surfaces of proteins. A two-stage method is developed in w...
