Computational modeling of protein-DNA complexes remains a challenging problem in structural bioinformatics. One of the key factors for a successful protein-DNA docking is a potential function that can accurately discriminate the near-native structures from decoy complexes and at the same time make conformational sampling more efficient. Here, we developed a novel orientation-dependent, knowledge-based, residue-level potential for improving transcription factor (TF)-DNA docking.
