Scoring Docked Protein Complexes with Hydrogen Bonds

Finding the structure of proteins and protein-protein complexes is an important problem in the field of computational biology. Determining protein structures can be done successfully with various experimental methods like x-ray crystallography, but determining protein-protein structures experimentally is more difficult. Instead, these structures are frequently predicted computationally. One approach to predicting these complexes is to create a function to score complexes on their viability, ideally giving the correct structure the best score.
