SOLVE and RESOLVE: automated structure solution, density modification and model building

J Synchrotron Radiat. 2004 Jan 1;11(Pt 1):49-52. doi: 10.1107/s0909049503023938. Epub 2003 Nov 28.

Abstract

The software SOLVE and RESOLVE can carry out all the steps in macromolecular structure solution, from scaling and heavy-atom location through phasing, density modification and model-building in the MAD, SAD and MIR cases. SOLVE uses scoring scheme to convert the decision-making in macromolecular structure solution to an optimization problem. RESOLVE carries out the identification of NCS, density modification and automated model-building. The procedure is fully automated and can function at resolutions as low as 3 A.
