NMFF

:: DESCRIPTION

NMFF (Normal Mode Flexible Fitting) is an evolving package of programs and methods that enable the flexible multi-resolution fitting of large atomically detailed structures into electron density maps from cryoEM, tomography and related lower resolution methods.The theory and methods behind NMFF are based on searching along a few lowest frequency normal mode vectors, constructed from a multi-resolution elastic network representation of the atomic structure of interest, to maximize the correlation between the computed electron density for the flexible model and the experimental density.
