Tutorials
We provide several Situs tutorials which can be downloaded separately at the following pages. Please note these tutorials are based on Situs 3.1 and will be replaced with the new software version and updated work flows when the 3.2 rollout is complete. In the mean time, if you want to get Situs 3.1 you can download one of the tutorials:

  • Classic EM tutorial: map editing and land-mark-based registration. Part I covers most classic Situs tools and part II covers more recent topics in histogram matching and point cloud matching.
  • Multi-fragment docking tutorial: manual docking by eye, simultaneous refinement of multiple rigid subunits, and the application of C, D, and helical symmetry.
  • Flexible fitting tutorial: flexible refinement of structures against volumetric densities. The tutorial describes the recent damped dynamics flexible fitting, as well as older Situs 2.x tools that are based on the registration of fiducial markers.
  • SAXS tutorial : docking to low-resolution bead models of proteins from small-angle X-ray scattering.
