Ludi fragment libraries are of two types: fragments used when Ludi is run in de novo mode (de novo library) and fragments used when Ludi is run in link mode (link library). There are two de novo libraries now available for Ludi. The fragment_all library contains a diverse set of fragments (approximately 1000 entries) and is released as part of Ludi. Ludi/ACD is a Ludi library available under separate license that contains all molecules in the MDL Available Chemicals Directory that are suitable for use with Ludi. The fragment_link library is the only link library available for use with Ludi and is released as part of Ludi. Customized de novo and link libraries may be created using the Ludi/Add_Fragment command in Insight II or the Unix-level command, genfra

A Ludi de novo or link library consists of two files, a structure file and a targets file. For each fragment in the Ludi library, there is an entry in the structure file that defines the element types and the coordinates of the atoms in the fragment. The structure entry is a multi-record entry; that is, it consists of more than one line. The first line of the structure entry specifies the fragment label and the number of atom records in the entry. The fragment label uniquely identifies the fragment within the library. The remaining lines in the structure entry define the fragment topology. The format of the topology section may either follow the format of Brookhaven Protein Data Bank (PDB) atom records or the format of MDL Mol files (including the header block, counts line, atom block and bond block). Connectivity is deduced from the atomic coordinates. The number of atom records may exceed the number of atoms in the fragment as some atoms may be listed twice for reasons that are explained below.

During a Ludi run up to six fragment atoms or groups of fragment atoms (the target sites) are fit onto a model of the receptor (the interaction sites). For example, when a receptor active site contains a hydrogen bond donor group, acceptor interaction sites are generated during a Ludi run. These interaction sites define the acceptable positions for a hydrogen bond acceptor that is participating in the hydrogen bond. Fragments with hydrogen bond acceptor target sites are then fit onto these interaction sites.

For each fragment in the Ludi library there is an entry in the targets file that specifies the type of each target site in the fragment. There are two acceptable formats for the targets file: a single record format and a multi-record format. Table 10 describes the format of a single-record targets entry. The first value in the single-record targets entry is the fragment label. The second value is no longer used because it has been replaced by a user-specified parameter. The remaining values specify the chemical types of the fragment's target sites. Each fragment has a minimum of two, and a maximum of six, target sites. Some of the chemical types refer to two-atom target sites and some to one-atom target sites. For example, hydrogen bond donating groups are two-atom target sites. Hydrophobic atoms are one-atom target sites. A description of the chemical types, including their classification as one- or two-atom targets, is given in Table 11.

Each entry in the single-record targets file corresponds to an entry in the structure file. Each value in the targets entry that specifies the chemical type of a target site corresponds to one or two records in the structure entry. The first chemical type value in the targets file corresponds to the first or the first two atom records in the structure entry. If the chemical type specifies a one-atom target, the correspondence is to the first atom record of the structure entry. If the chemical type specifies a two-atom target, the correspondence is to the first two atom records of the structure entry.

Figures 4 and 9 reproduce link library entries for ribose with a single-record targets file format. Figure 4 is in PDB format and Figure 5 is in MDL mol format. For each entry, the first target atom is a type 7, a link group. A link group is a two-atom target and so the correspondence is to the atom records for C1 and C2. The second chemical type is -3, a hydrogen bond accepting atom. A hydrogen bond accepting atom is a one-atom target and so the correspondence is to the atom record for O4. The third chemical type is 5, a hydrogen bond donating group. The hydrogen bond donating group is a two-atom target and the correspondence is to the atom records for H6 and O6. Similarly, the fourth and fifth chemical types are 5, hydrogen bond donating groups, and the correspondence is to the atom records for H8 and O8 and to H12 and 012, respectively.

Figure 4 . Annotated Link Library Entry for Ribose, MDL Mol format.

The last field of the first line of the structure file entry identifies the format of the library, either MOL_FORMAT or PDB_FORMAT. If the format tag is missing the library is assumed to be in PDB format.

The first field of the first line of the structure entries for both PDB format and MDL mol format libraries gives a 4 character library identifier. This identifier must be unique across all entries in the library. The first three characters are chosen by the user (Ludi/Add_Fragment Label parameter) and the last character is appended by the Ludi/Add_Fragment background job.

The second field of the first line in a PDB format entry and the first field of the fifth line in a MDL mol format entry gives the number of ATOM records in the entry. The number may exceed the number of atoms in the fragment. This occurs when an atom is a member of more than one target site. As an example, consider the N in an NH2 group. Either of the two hydrogens can be donated in a hydrogen bond so there are two hydrogen bond donating target sites and each will contain an atom record for the N. These "duplicate" atoms are removed after the fragment is fit to the interaction sites.

The second and fourth lines of the MDL mol format entry give the molecule name and a comment that is entered at the Ludi/Add_Fragment parameter block.

The second field of the fifth line of the MDL mol format entry specifies how many BOND records follow the ATOM records. The first two numbers in a BOND record specify the bonded atoms and the third number specifies the bond order. The atom specification refers to the number of the ATOM record, e.g., 1 indicates the first atom listed in the ATOM records.

The "M END" and "$$$$" lines indicate the end of the MDL mol format entry.


 

Figure 5 . Format for a multi-record targets file.

Figure 6 describes the format for a multi-record targets file. The first line of the file is a header that specifies the version of Genfra that produced the file. This line is followed by entries for each molecule in the library. The first record of the entry gives the library label and the number of atoms in the fragment. There is one line for each atom in the fragment that specifies atom number, atom name, accessible surface estimate, number of ludi types for the atom and the list of ludi types.

<run_name>.ludi_pdb, fort.10

This file describes the protein into whose active site Ludi is fitting fragments. The protein is specified by the Receptor Name parameter in the Ludi/Run command. The file is in pdb format and must begin with an ATOM record. No header records are allowed. This file can contain only the portion of the protein that falls with the search sphere specified at run time; it need not contain the entire protein. This file can be read into Insight II with the Ludi/Load command by turning the Load_Reference_Mol parameter on.

The link fort.10 points to the <run_name>.ludi_pdb when Ludi is run in receptor mode (for the <run_name>.ludi_pdb file that is used in active analog mode, see the next section). Standard mode is specified by toggling the Active_Analog parameter to off in the Ludi/Run command.

<run_name>.ludi_pdb, fort.3

This file describes the superimposed ligands for which Ludi is suggesting analogs. The superimposed ligands are members of the assembly specified by the Assembly Name parameter in the Ludi/Run command. The file is in standard pdb format and must begin with an ATOM record. Each ligand is separated from the previous ligand by a TER record. No header records are allowed.

The link fort.3 points to the <run_name>.ludi_pdb file when Ludi is run in active analog mode. Active analog mode is specified by toggling the Active_Analog parameter to on in the Ludi/Run command.

<run_name>.ludi_inhib, fort. 7

This file describes the partially constructed molecule onto which Ludi tries to add fragments. The molecule is specified by the Ligand Spec parameter in the Ludi/Run command. The <run_name>.ludi_inhib file is in standard pdb format and must begin with an ATOM record. No header records are allowed. This file can be read into Insight II with the Ludi/Load command by turning the Load_Ligand parameter on.

The link fort.7 points to the <run_name>.ludi_inhib file when Ludi is run in link mode. Link mode is specified using the Linkage parameter in the Ludi/Run command. Valid values of Linkage for link mode are One, Two, or Specified.

<run_name>.ludi_inp

The Ludi/Run command automatically creates an input file containing the Ludi execution parameters. A typical example of the <run_name>.ludi_inp file follows:

2 The Runtime Names are the filenames in effect until the Ludi/Run background job concludes successfully. If the job crashes, the fort.* may be left in the run directory. They can be removed using the Unix rm command. When the job finishes the files are automatically renamed with the names listed under Filename.

fort.46

This file exists only while the Ludi/Run background job is executing and contains runtime status information. The contents of this file are printed in the textport when the Background_Job/Completion_Status command is executed. The following is typical of the status information contained in this file:


 LUDI has found        7 molecules so far.
It has considered 17 ( 1%) molecules from the database.
The top score so far is 392.

<run_name>.ludi_int_sites, fort.11

This file contains the interaction sites that Ludi used in fitting new fragments. As described in Chapter 2, Theory, an interaction site occurs where a nonbonded interaction is possible. This file is in PDB format and can be read into Insight II with the Ludi/Load command by turning the Load_Interact_Sites parameter on. The fort.11 file produced by the Ludi/Run background job is automatically renamed to <run_name>.ludi_int_sites when the background job completes.

<run_name>.ludi_pseudo_protein, fort.12

This file describes the exclusion shell that Ludi constructs from the active analogs. No fragment will be fit outside of this shell. The file is in PDB format and can be read into Insight II by turning the Load_Pseudo_Protein parameter on in the Ludi/Load command. The fort.12 file produced by the Ludi/Run background job is automatically renamed to <run_name>.ludi_pseudo_protein when the background job completes.

<run_name>.ludi_frag_<xxx>

When the Ludi/Run background job finds a hit, it stores the fragment in a file and scoring information is included as REMARK records in the PDB formatted files (see below) or as a SKP section in the data records of MDL mol formatted files (see below).

The scoring section starts with a SKP record that specifies the number of records to follow. The second record identifies the section as a "Ludi Score and Interaction Summary". The third record gives the total score for the hit.

The fourth record gives an obsolete id number followed by the library label of the hit, the RMS deviation of the hit coordinates from the interaction site coordinates, the number of atoms employed in the fitting, the number of atoms in the hit, the percentage of the hit surface in contact with the receptor, and, if the run is an active analog run, the percentage occupancy of the exclusion shell. The next lines list the receptor atoms with which the hit is interacting for hydrophobic contacts, hydrogen bonds and ionic interactions. For the hydrogen bonds and ionic interactions, the length (Angstroms) and angle (degrees) of the interaction is listed.

The last line of the scoring section lists the obsolete id number, the library label of the hit, the RMS deviation of the hit coordinates from the interaction site coordinates, the number of atoms employed in the fitting, the number of atoms in the hit, the percentage of the hit surface in contact with the receptor, if the run is an active analog run, the percentage occupancy of the exclusion shell, counts of the number of link sites, hydrophobic sites, hydrogen bond sites to which the hit was fit, the total score, the score from the hydrogen bond term, the score from the lipophilic term, the score from the link term, the count of ionic interactions and the score from that term, the count of rotatable bonds and the score from that term, the count of aromatic-aromatic interactions and the score from that term.

<run_name>.ludi_err, fort.49

Fort.49 contains any error messages produced by the Ludi/Run background job. It is automatically renamed to <run_name>.ludi_err.

<run_name>.ludi_log

This file contains information describing the run of the Ludi/Run background job. The fields are self-explanatory and include a list of the runtime parameters, numbers of interaction sites generated and a summary of fitting results for each fragment in the library.

<run_name>.ludi_targ_sites, fort.8

This file contains the list of target atoms for each fragment that was used in fitting to the interaction sites. If the library targets file format was of the single-record type, it will recapitulate what is already in the targets file. If the targets file format was of the multi-record format, this file lists for each fit: the fragment label and the atom name, atom number and type for each target atom.

Input Files--Ludi/Add_Fragment background job

Table 14. Ludi/Add_Fragment Input Files

Filename Linknamea Description
GENFRA_RUN.pdb_entry   fort.41   Fragment topology, PDB format.  
GENFRA_RUN.sd_entry   fort.41   Fragment topology, MDL mol format.  
GENFRA_RUN.inp     Runtime parameters for Ludi/Add_Fragment background job.  
GENFRA_RUN.env     Library locator file.  
<lib_file.struct>b     Library Structure File (may not exist yet.)  
<lib_file.inp>b     Library Targets File (may not exist yet.)  
aLinknames are runtime links to the files listed under Filename in this table. These links are removed when the Ludi/Add_Fragment background gob completes.   b<lib_file.struct> and <lib_file.inp> are specified in the Ludi/Add_Fragment command by the parameters Structure File and Targets File, respectively.  

GENFRA_RUN.pdb_entry, GENFRA_RUN.sd_entry, fort.41

These files contain the structure of the fragment being added to the library. The structure is in PDB format in GENFRA_RUN.pdb_entry and in MDL mol format in GENFRA_RUN.sd_entry. If the fragment is being added to an existing library, a shell script determines the library format and then links fort.41 to the correspondingly formatted fragment structure file. If a new library is being created, the user has specified the format for the library. All three files are automatically deleted when the Ludi/Add_Fragment background job completes.

GENFRA_RUN.inp

GENFRA_RUN.inp contains the runtime control parameters for the Ludi/Add_Fragment background job. It is deleted automatically when the Ludi/Add_Fragment background job completes.

GENFRA_RUN.env

This file contains 2 Unix commands that set environment variables specifying the full pathnames of the library files. The environment variables are accessible only by the background job and cease to exist when the background job completes. This file is deleted automatically when the Ludi/Add_Fragment background job completes.

<lib_file.struct>, <lib_file.inp>

These files comprise the library to which the fragment is being added. <lib_file.struct> is the structure file and contains the fragment topologies. <lib_file.inp> is the targets file and identifies the functional groups in the fragments that will be fit to interaction sites during a Ludi run.

Filename Description
GENFRA_RUN.log   Runtime log file.  
fort.3   Targets file entry for the new fragment.  
fort.7   Structure file entry for the new fragment.  
<lib_file.struct>   Modified library structure file.  
<lib_file.inp>   Modified library targets file.  

GENFRA_RUN.log

This file contains information describing the run of the Ludi/Add_Fragment background job. At the end of the run, the information is automatically printed in the textport and the file is deleted. The information printed to the textport includes the number of target sites found for the fragment, how many library entries were generated for the fragment and whether adding the new entries to the library was successful.

fort.3

This file contains the targets file entries created by the Ludi/Add_Fragment background job for the new fragment. The contents of the file are appended to <lib_file.inp> and this file is deleted.

fort.7

This file contains the structure file entries created by the Ludi/Add_Fragment background job for the new fragment. The contents of the file are appended to <lib_file.struct> and this file is deleted.

<lib_file.struct>, <lib_file.inp>

These files comprise the library to which the fragment has been added. <lib_file.struct> is the structure file and contains the fragment topologies. <lib_file.inp> is the targets file and identifies the functional groups in the fragments that will be fit to interaction sites during a Ludi run.

Input Files--Ludi/Score background job

Filenamea Linknameb Description
<run_name>.ludi_receptor   fort.10   PDB file for the receptor.  
<run_name>.ludi_ligand   fort.9   PDB file for the ligand.  
aThe <run_name> is specified by the Run Name parameter in the Ludi/Score command.   bLink names are runtime links to the files listed under Filename in this table. These links are removed when the Ludi/Score background job completes.  

<run_name>.ludi_receptor, fort.10

This file describes the receptor of the receptor/ligand complex being scored. The file is in PDB format and may not contain the whole receptor but only a zone of receptor atoms surrounding the ligand. Fort.10 is a runtime link to <run_name>.ludi_receptor. Both files are automatically deleted when the Ludi/Score background job completes.

<run_name>.ludi_ligand, fort.9

This file describes the ligand of the receptor/ligand complex being scored. The file is in PDB format. Fort.9 is a runtime link to <run_name>.ludi_ligand. Both files are automatically deleted when the Ludi/Score background job completes.

<run_name>.ludi_err   fort.49   Error file.  
aThe <run_name> is specified by the Run Name parameter in the Ludi/Score command.   bThe Runtime Names are the filenames in effect until the Ludi/Score background job concludes. When the job finishes, the files are automatically compiled and renamed with the names listed under Filename.  

<run_name>.ludi_score_1, <run_name>.ludi_log_1, fort.40;
<run_name>.ludi_score_2, <run_name>.ludi_log_2, fort.50;
<run_name>.ludi_score_3, <run_name>.ludi_log_3, fort.60;

The indices (1, 2, 3) in the above file names correspond to the scoring function selected (Energy_Estimate_1, Energy_Estimate_2 or Energy_Estimate_3).

<run_name>.ludi_score_x is a compilation of the files, <run_name>.ludi_log_x, and <run_name>.lig_names. <run_name>.ludi_log contains information describing the run of the Ludi/Score background job. Fort contains the scoring results and <run_name>.lig_names contains the list of ligands being scored. At the completion of the Ludi/Score background job, the three files are compiled into <run_name>.ludi_score and the constituent files are deleted.

<run_name>.ludi_err, fort.49

Fort.49 contains any error messages produced by the Ludi/Score background job. It is automatically renamed to <run_name>.ludi_err at the end of the job.
