Fitting to a cryo-EM map

Contents

Overview

CryoFit fits biomolecule (protein and nucleic acids) to Cryo-EM map that is reconstructed by single particle analysis.

Install method, tutorial run files, troubleshooting can be found here.

Input

<initial_model>.pdb and <target_map>.sit

Running the program

cryo_fit.run can be executed via the GUI, or the command line:

% cryo_fit.run <initial_model>.pdb <target_map>.sit

example command line:

% cryo_fit.run tRNA.pdb tRNA.sit

Output

A final cryo_fitted structure: steps/7_cryo_fit/cryo_fitted.pdb (or cryo_fitted.gro if you specified .gro for your vmd visualization)

Correlation coefficients (CC) between cryo_fitted structures and cryo-EM maps: steps/7_cryo_fit/cc_record
