Course date: June 11th - June 13th 2014
Course description
One of the major challenges in structural biology is to determine the
structures of macromolecular complexes and to understand their
function and mechanism of action. However, structural characterisation
of macromolecular assemblies is very difficult. To begin addressing
this problem, we have developed PyRy3D.
In a nutshell, PyRy3D employs a hybrid computational approach that
incorporates spatial information from a variety of experimental
methods into the modelling procedure to build low-resolution models of
large macromolecular complexes. The PyRy3D model building procedure
uses a Monte Carlo approach to sample the solutions-space. It uses
spatial restraints to define components interacting with each other,
and a simple scoring function is applied to pack them tightly into
contours of the entire complex (e.g. cryoEM density maps).
