I performed a round of docking and obtained an output file containing 9 different models. The affinity (kcal/mol) ranged from -4.5 to -3.0. My first question is what is considered high binding affinity i.e. what range is considered high affinity, moderate affinity etc. My second question is about the output file. The output file is in pdbqt format and can be viewed in Pymol just fine, but the problem is that I cannot separate out the individual orientations of the output file. I want to change the format to pdb so that I can change the depiction of the models in PyMol, but PyMol treats the file as one file and will not allow me to read out the models as separate pdb files. Does anybody know how to separate out the different models contained in one output file provided by AutoDock Vina. Thanks for any advice. Take care, Christine
