What constitutes a good docking score?

0

Generally a score below -32 is regarded as a good docking score. A good score depends on the system into which you are docking. For example is the pocket open or closed and are there metal ions interacting with the ligand. If the pocket is open scores higher than -32 may indicate potential binders. If a crystal structure is available remove the ligand and re-dock it to get an indication of approximately what is a good score for the receptor you are interested in.
