I'm trying to validate my pharmacophore hypotheses (structure-based) obtained from Ligand Scout using training set of compound with known activity (including the native ligand of the receptor). However when i did VS, it didn't recognise the native ligand in the training set as a hit. When i put those two in alignment perspective, the conformation is slightly different. Should i align the training set with the native ligand's conformation as the template beforehand? I'm new in this field (Computational Chemistry). Much help's appreciated
