OK.

It is a 0.2nm (i.e. 2.0 Angstroms) resolution X-ray structure. This is
very coarse compared to the errors I am noting. They used structure
refinement to determine the coordinates - I am not familiar enough with
the method to know by how much this reduces error bars.

Conjugate gradient energy minimization.

I started from a rigid docking calculation, optimised the resulting
geometry, solvated the complex, and re-optimised.
