• Description: FastGrid is a fork of AutoGrid, which computes grid maps of interaction energies for various atom types around a macromolecule. These grid maps are then used by AutoDock docking calculations to determine the total interaction energy for a ligand with a macromolecule. FastGrid is meant to be a replacement of AutoGrid, having the same behavior as AutoGrid 4.2.1, and being more than 100x faster depending on a molecule and grid map size.
