MOE® version 2014.0901 (Chemical Computing group Inc., Montreal, QC, Canada) docking software was used for this task. First, locating possible target positions in the carrier was performed using the MOE’s site finder tool. After, dummy atoms were added [34 (link)]. Each of the investigated molecules was placed at these locations utilizing the triangle matcher placement method. Flexible docking was conducted adopting the ASE scoring function. A mean value of the top five poses binding energies and their SD were calculated [32 (link),35 (link),36 (link)].

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
