Heuristic pKa calculations with ligands
Project description
PROPKA predicts the pKa values of ionizable groups in proteins (version 3.0) and protein-ligand complexes (version 3.1 and later) based on the 3D structure.
For proteins without ligands both version should produce the same result.
The method is described in the following papers, which you should cite in publications:
