AMDock: Assisted Molecular Docking with Autodock4 and Autodock Vina

AMDock (Assisted Molecular Docking) is a user-friendly graphical tool to assist in the docking of protein-ligand complexes using Autodock-Vina or AutoDock4. This tool integrates several external programs for processing docking input files, define the search space (box) and perform docking under user’s supervision.

INSTALL Installation can be carried out in two ways

1. Using a conda environment. To do this, proceed as follows:

If you don't have conda installed, please visit the Miniconda download page.

Those with an existing conda installation may wish to create a new conda "environment" to avoid conflicts with what you already have installed. To do this:

conda create --name AMDock
conda activate AMDock

(Note that you would need to perform the "conda activate" step every time you wish to use AMDock in a new terminal; it might be appropriate to add this to your start-up script. Creating a new environment should not be necessary if you only use conda for AMDock.)

Once this is done, type:

conda install -c conda-forge pymol-open-source openbabel pdb2pqr

and finally:

python -m pip install git+https://github.com/Valdes-Tresanco-MS/AutoDockTools_py3
python -m pip install AMDock

2. Using the OS Python 3 environment. To do this, proceed as follows:

   sudo apt install pymol openbabel

(Note that this version of AMDock works with openbabel 3.x)

python3 -m pip install pdb2pqr
python3 -m pip install git+https://github.com/Valdes-Tresanco-MS/AutoDockTools_py3
python3 -m pip install AMDock

Before using AMDock, check that PyMOL has the AMDock plugin in taskbar.
If it does not appear please follow the instructions:

• Download the -open PyMOL > Plugins > Manager Plugins > Settings > Add new directory
  PyMOL should automatically have:

~/.pymol/startup or /home/user_name/.pymol/startup if not, please select the previous address

after this you must restart PyMol
