Note: docking score/ kcal/mol means weak binding capacity, / means moderate binding capacity, and docking score/ means strong binding ability. A smaller value of RMSD indicates a higher spatial overlap between the active monomer and the best bound conformation; that is, a smaller value means a higher chance of successful docking.
