Protein folding scoring function evaluation

Knowledge-based functions are based on the derivation of statistical preferences in the form of potentials for protein ligand atom pair interactions. Similar to potentials derived for protein folding and protein structure evaluation (e.g., Ref. 148), pair potentials akin to potentials of mean force (PMFs) are derived for various protein and ligand atom types using the PDB as a knowledge base. The PMF scoring function [118]...
