What problem does it solve?
This Skill helps structure scientists ensure consistent sequences and coordinates across multiple NCS-related copies in COOT. It guides users to reference symmetry-related molecules to align sequences and references, reducing build errors and improving model accuracy.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Compare sequences between related chains to identify discrepancies and ensure consistency across NCS copies.
- Use the better-built chain as a template to guide rebuilding of other chains, reducing manual trial-and-error.
- Copy and apply NCS-based fragments across chains, followed by targeted refinements and validation to improve model quality.
Quick Start
Load your molecule in COOT, enable NCS ghosts, and run the example workflow to compare A and B chains, build missing residues from the better copy, and refine with flanking residues.
