aRMSDs are calculated for the ligand interface C 𝛼 atoms in this work. bDocking with known binding site followed by refinement of interface side-chain conformations [27]; RMSD (Å) calculated for the ligand interface C 𝛼 atoms. cGlobal docking followed by hydrophobicity and connectivity filters [40]; RMSD (Å) calculated for the ligand heavy atoms when only receptor is superimposed onto the real structure. dGlobal docking and filtering with distance restraints [6]; RMSD (Å) when both receptor and ligand C 𝛼 atoms are superimposed onto the real complex. eGlobal docking [41]; RMSD (Å) calculated for the ligand C 𝛼 atoms when only the receptor C 𝛼 atoms are superimposed onto the real structure.
