Auxiliary CCP4 programs used in these tasks

ACT
Analyse coordinates
ANISOANL
Analyse anisotropic displacement parameters
AREAIMOL
Analyse solvent accessible areas
BAVERAGE
Averages temperature factor over main- and side-chain atoms
CAVENV
Calculate cavities in macromolecular structures
CONTACT
Computes various types of contacts in protein structure
DISTANG
Analyse distances and angles
DYNDOM
Determine dynamic domains when two conformations are available
FREERFLAG
Tag each reflection in an MTZ file with a flag for cross-validation
GEOMCALC
Molecular geometry calculations
PHISTATS
Analysis of agreement between phase sets, and checking it against weighting factors
POLYPOSE
Superimpose many multi-domain structures
SC
Analyse shape complementarity
SURFACE
Surface accessibility; also for preparing input for VOLUME
TOPP
Topological comparison
VOLUME
Polyhedral volume around selected atoms
WATERTIDY
Rationalise waters at the end of refinement

Other non-CCP4 programs

RCSB Validation Server
Check the format consistency of coordinates and create validation reports about a structure before deposition
Protein Data Bank at EBI
AutoDep to the Protein Data Bank
WHAT IF
Protein structure analysis (probably not free of charge)
