from mgltools import AutoDockTools ligand = AutoDockTools.Ligand("input.pdb") ligand.add_hydrogens() ligand.assign_charges() ligand.set_rotatable_bonds() ligand.write_pdbqt("output.pdbqt") Scripts can be run within ADT’s console or as standalone Python files using MGLTools modules. ADT can export maps and PDBQT files for use with other docking engines (e.g., rDock, Smina). Conversely, docking results from other software can be loaded for visualization. 6. Practical Case Study: Docking of Imatinib to ABL Kinase Objective: Predict the binding mode of the anticancer drug imatinib (Gleevec) to the ABL kinase domain (PDB ID: 1IEP). autodock tools
This paper provides a systematic overview of ADT’s capabilities, from installation and interface navigation to advanced scripting. We also present a case study of docking a kinase inhibitor to illustrate the complete workflow. AutoDock Tools is distributed as part of MGLTools (Molecular Graphics Laboratory Tools). It is platform-independent, running on Linux, macOS, and Windows, provided Python 2.7 (or legacy compatibility) and Tkinter are available. However, newer distributions (post-2020) offer Python 3 support. --- End of Paper --- from mgltools import
