Software for molecular docking: a review (2017, methodology): “The contact surface be-tween the ligand and the protein is further optimized by a Gaussian shape fitting function in FLOG (Miller et al. 1994), CLIX (Lawrence and Davis 1992), FRED (McGann et al. 2003), and PAS-Dock (Protein Alpha Shape-Dock) (Tøndel et al. 2006) to perform rigid body docking.”
