C-scoreLB is the confidence score of predicted binding site. C-scoreLB values range between , where a higher score indicates a more reliable ligand-binding site prediction.
bTM-score is a measure of global structural similarity between query and template protein.
cRMSD is the RMSD between residues that are structurally aligned by TM-align.
dIDEN is the percentage sequence identity in the structurally aligned region.
eCov. represents the coverage of global structural alignment and is equal to the number of structurally aligned residues divided by length of the query protein.
fBS-score is a measure of local similarity (sequence and structure) between template binding site and predicted binding site in the query structure.
