Description

Hello community, In the Design Binder feature of RFdiffusion, the authors have stated that “define an interface hotspot residues as any residue on the target chain that is within 10 Angstrom Cbeta-Cbeta distance of the binder chain.” As I understand, their “binder” here is protein/peptide. However, my target (I got it from PBD) is in a complex with a small molecule. So, in my case, how can I pick hotspots?

Research direction

Start with the Design Binder hotspot definition quoted in the issue and the target complex obtained from PDB. Determine how hotspot selection should be handled when the target is bound to a small molecule, then document the applicable procedure and its completion criteria. No source file or test is named, so project structure and existing guidance will need to be located first.
