Re: [modeller_usage] structural docking

[Mensur Dlakic <mdlakic AT montana.edu>]

It appears to me that the question was general even though it was mailed to 
Modeller-specific list. So no, Modeller can't do protein docking, but yes, 
protein-protein docking can be done. See links below for more info:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein-protein_docking
http://zlab.bu.edu/zdock/dockingsites.shtml

My general advice: whenever in doubt, go to Wikipedia and type few keywords 
- it comes up with something relevant more often than not.

Cheers,
