Manuals
- AVEPDB to average models
- CELLO to play with your cell
- CT2HET to find hetero compounds in
the PDB using only atom type and connectivity information (using the
hetero-compound collection OMAC/hetero.pdb)
- DCUP to do quick calculations
during data-collection
- HETZE to check the geometrical
quality of hetero compounds (before or after refinement)
- MOLEMAN to do all sorts of
things with/to PDB files (obsolete except for a few arcane
options; use MOLEMAN2 instead !)
- MOLEMAN2 to do everything you
used to do with MOLEMAN, but: better, stronger, faster !
- O2D to make 2D plots
- ODBM to analyse O datablocks
(ODBMAN offers many more options !)
- ODBMAN to analyse O datablocks
- OOPS to scrutinise your model and
generate rebuilding macros for O
- PACMAN to check packing after
Molecular Replacement
- RMSPDB to analyse multiple models
(LSQMAN does this much better !)
- SEAMAN to generate search models
for Molecular Replacement
- SOD to generate O datablocks from
(aligned) sequences
- XPAND to expand molecules under
NCS and/or spacegroup symmetry
- XPLO2D does "stuff" to X-PLOR input
or output files; most popular for its option to auto-generate topology
and parameter files for hetero-entities in X-PLOR
- XVRML to generate VRML files from PDB files
- Not documented yet: OST (superceded by SOD), ODLedit, PDB2CT
Description
X-UTIL (pronounce: "subtle") is a set of utility programs intended for
(but not limited to) practicing protein crystallographers.
Platforms
X-UTIL is available for SGI and DEC ALPHA/OSF1 workstations. Some of
the programs are useful only if you use O or X-PLOR/CNS, others
are of general utility.
