3 protein-contact clashes
3 intramolecular clashes
71% of hydrophobic surface is solvent-exposed (15/21 atoms). Large non-polar area without protein contacts incurs a desolvation penalty and will reduce binding affinity. Consider truncating or replacing the exposed fragment.

Solvent-exposed hydrophobic surface — desolvation penalty likely
