1. AutoDock Vina: Improving the speed and accuracy of docking with a new scoring function, efficient optimization, and multithreadingJournal of Computational Chemistry · 2009 · 38,969 citations

   AutoDock Vina, a new program for molecular docking and virtual screening, is presented. AutoDock Vina achieves an approximately two orders of magnitude speed-up compared with the molecular docking software previously developed in our lab (AutoDock 4), while also significantly improving…

2. AutoDock4 and AutoDockTools4: Automated docking with selective receptor flexibilityJournal of Computational Chemistry · 2009 · 26,013 citations

   We describe the testing and release of AutoDock4 and the accompanying graphical user interface AutoDockTools. AutoDock4 incorporates limited flexibility in the receptor. Several tests are reported here, including a redocking experiment with 188 diverse ligand-protein complexes and a cross-docking experiment…

3. Automated docking using a Lamarckian genetic algorithm and an empirical binding free energy functionJournal of Computational Chemistry · 1998 · 10,968 citations

   A novel and robust automated docking method that predicts the bound conformations of flexible ligands to macromolecular targets has been developed and tested, in combination with a new scoring function that estimates the free energy change upon binding. Interestingly, this…
