- HADDOCK (High Ambiguity Driven protein-protein DOCKing) is an information-driven flexible docking approach for the modeling of biomolecular complexes. HADDOCK distinguishes itself from ab-initio docking methods in the fact that it encodes information from identified or predicted protein interfaces in ambiguous interaction restraints (AIRs) to drive the docking process. HADDOCK can deal with a large class of modeling problems including protein-protein, protein-nucleic acids and protein-ligand complexes.
- More information about HADDOCK can be found on the HADDOCK website
- Read also what an independent review by Moreira et al. has to say about our software...
- HADDOCK webserver
- The use of the HADDOCK WeNMR GRID-enabled docking server is
free for academic users. Access to the server is managed through Signle
Sign On authentication using your WeNMR account. Old style HADDOCK web
server accounts are still supported. How to proceed:
- Become a member of the WeNMR Virtual Research Community at www.wenmr.eu
- Once logged in, go to the "My Services" tab in your account profile and subscribe to the GROMACS web portal. Follow the instructions on screen. HADDOCK requires a valid X509 Grid certificate as explained below
- You have to be in possession of a valid X509 personal certificate that proves you are allowed to run calculations on the GRID and a membership of the eNMR Virtual Organization. If you do not yet have one you can find information on how to obtain a certificate here
- Once you are a member of the WeNMR VRC it is easy to subscribe to the many services WeNMR has to offer
- Note: registration does require a valid grid certificate!!!
-
The default HADDOCK settings used by the server can be found here A list of modified amino acids supported by HADDOCK can be found here
- HADDOCK help center
- You can post question regarding the use of the HADDOCK web server using the WeNMR HADDOCK support center. To make use of this service you should first register with the WeNMR virtual research community (register link on the top right of the WeNMR page).
- Further the WeNMR site also provides a number of HADDOCK tutorials and a WIKI page to which you can contribute.
