Characterization of life processes at the molecular level requires structural details of protein interactions. The number of experimentally determined structures of protein-protein complexes accounts only for a fraction of known protein interactions. This gap in structural description of the interactome has to be bridged by modeling. An essential part of the development of structural modeling/docking techniques for protein interactions is databases of protein-protein complexes. They are necessary for studying protein interfaces, providing a knowledge base for docking algorithms, and developing intermolecular potentials, search procedures, and scoring functions. Development of protein-protein docking techniques requires thorough benchmarking of different parts of the docking protocols on carefully curated sets of protein-protein complexes. We present a comprehensive description of the Dockground resource () for structural modeling of protein interactions, including previously unpublished unbound docking benchmark set 4, and the X-ray docking decoy set 2. The resource offers a variety of interconnected datasets of protein-protein complexes and other data for the development and testing of different aspects of protein docking methodologies. Based on protein-protein complexes extracted from the PDB biounit files, Dockground offers sets of X-ray unbound, simulated unbound, model, and docking decoy structures. All datasets are freely available for download, as a whole or selecting specific structures, through a user-friendly interface on one integrated website.
