Updating Tools

27 October 2009

We have a page dedicated to tools used in macromolecular crystallography.

My goal is to provide one location that houses a collection of beneficial tools. Having these programs in one spot will ultimately save everyone a lot of time because it would eliminate endless searching. For a long time, ExPASy has been a great site for tools. Unfortunately, it does not appear to be maintained any longer; many of the links are now broken. ExPASy tended to be repetitive and had a lot of tools that we do not need, like Popitam for mass spectrometry.

I have been updating the Tools page with new content but feel that a number of great programs and online tools are still missing.

What are we missing? Should data processing and refinement programs be included (ie. ccp4, cns)? What tools have you been using that are not listed? Could the ‘Tools’ page layout be improved? We need one great location for crystallography tools, can you help?
