551. PRODIS: Low-Energy Conformations of Flexible Molecules

by Lilly Sanathanan, Elizabeth Danaher, Ki Kim and Yvonne Martin, Pharmaceutical Products Division, Abbott Laboratories, North Chicago, Illinois 60064

PRODIS generates both the distance probability distribution for each conformation separately and for the molecule as a whole, obtained by adding the probability functions for all conformations. The program also identifies the most probable distance and lists, in descending order, conformations most likely (according to their probabilities around the most probable distance) to give rise to the most probable distance. This program also finds conformations with the exact distance of the user-supplied modal distance. An option is available to create an SAS graph file which plots the probability vs. distance and the structural formula. The structural formula is only available in one of the PRODIS versions (PRODIS). The program also outputs energy contour maps.

There are two versions of the program, PRODIS and PRODIS2. PRODIS2 inputs CHEMLAB SCAN and DISTSCAN.MAP files. PRODIS inputs the output file from an old version of the SCAN option in CHEMLAB which has been modified at Abbott. The two versions do basically the same things except the input file formats are different and, as mentioned, PRODIS2 does not have an option to plot the structure.

Both versions are supplied in QCPE 551.

NOTE: This system is being distributed on its own 600' tape in ANSI Standard (VAX COPY) format.
