Hello, scoring fucntions are experimental (heuristic) functions -
therefore they are only approximations. You need approximations since you
want to dock libraries with numerous ligands. Somebody asked recently why
do we need different scoring funcions: simply because they are different
sort of approximations. If you can get the native ligand as a first from a
random library then you are very lucky. Usually native ligands are in the
top 1% or 5% (or ranked even worse) but rarely are the very first. You
need special pre- and post-filtering procedures to get a reasonable hit
library with docking.

Unfortunatelly the CLL arhive search is not working, I sent these
references already:

M. Stahl & M. Rarey:
Detailed Analysis of Scoring Functions for Virtual Screening
J. Med. Chem. 2001, 44, 1035-1042

Protein-Based Virtual Screening of Chemical Databases. 1. Evaluation of
Different Docking/Scoring Combinations
J. Med. Chem. 2000, 43, 4759-4767

Also the Glide tech note is very useful:
http://www.schrodinger.com/docs/fd2_2002_2/pdf/fd25_technical_notes.pdf
(it is analysing only one docking platform but with many targets, check
the "Database enrichment" section).

Assuming that the subsection hasn't been overly deformed in the docking 
process, I'd try this: Do a least-squares superposition of the subsection

transformation to the rest of the molecule. Put the two pieces together again 
and do some energy minimization to get a presentable molecule.

AFAIK Swiss-PDB can superpose your proteins:

or the commercial tool MOE. There are many other software I had never used
for superposition.

    Time-dependent density-functional theory (TDDFT) was established 20
years ago, and has since then made significant formal and practical
progress.  Today, TDDFT is the method of choice for calculating excitation
energies of complex molecules, and is becoming increasingly popular for
describing spectroscopic properties of bulk solids, clusters, and
nanostructures. Another growing area of applications is the nonlinear
dynamics of strongly excited systems.

This Summer School will provide an in-depth introduction to the
fundamental framework of TDDFT, and will give a broad overview of its
applications. The School specifically invites students and non-specialists
in chemistry, physics and materials science, and will be organized as a
6-day interactive short-course.

The website, including application materials, is at
http://campus.umr.edu/tddft/tddft.htm.  Space is limited.

The organizers are Carsten Ullrich, Kieron Burke, and Giovanni Vignale.
