The success rate at each RMSD criterion is the percentage of all protein-small molecule complexes with the best (i.e., lowest) scoring complex having an RMSD to the native conformation within the allowed deviation. The RMSD ≤0.5Å column corresponds to the definition of ‘accurate’ discrimination used in Figure 1.

The success rate for DOCK/FF at RMSD 0.0Å is not available as the minimization in DOCK changes the small-molecule position prior to scoring. The r·m·r function outperforms all other functions at distinguishing native and near-native biomolecular interactions from incorrect conformations.
