Human PINK1 at a TOM-VDADC array Structure of the Week/Month/Year(?)! 9eih. Sylvia Callegari...David Komander, Science 13 March 2025. #coot Fancy mode Copyright/license-free - i.e. freely reproducible. Coot 1.1.14 coming soon!

Solid-modelled symmetry atoms, so that you can see symmetry on macOS. Before and after Coot 1.1.14 coming soon! # coot

Alphafold PAE plot added to Coot 1! Coot 1.1.14 coming soon! #coot

You can represent atom selections as Metaballs in Moorhen Models → + → Style → Metaballs #moorhen

Coot 1.1.13 Released SSM Superpose works! NCS Ghosts works! CA label tracking on "spacing" through chain! #coot

After years of (off and on) effort, Coot 1 finally compiles and runs on Alma Linux!

Coot 1.1.12 Released: Graphics viewport scaling, Acedrg Link, HOLE and several fixes pemsley.github.io/coot/blog/20...

HOLE-y! An implementation of Oliver Smart's HOLE now available in Coot 1 Linear Gramicidin D - 2y5m - behold the lipid phase! Coot 1.1.12 out soon #coot

Coot's Ligand Builder now has dark-mode icons and dynamic QED scoring... 1.1.12 out soon! #coot

Moorhen Gallery has gone live! Click on an image and Moorhen will download into your browser the data, model and session files to reproduce the figure - so you can see how it's made. Get in touch with @lulu_catapano in the other place if you want to make a contribution to the gallery!

Quiz Question! The glutamic acid side-chain and the LLP ligand from 1ajs fit their density nicely but the contacts on the ligand are unhappy (almost thinking the interaction is a clash). What's going on?/Why is Coot unhappy?

Coot's new Acedrg Link interface Coot 1.1.12 out soon! #coot

Coot no longer turns your ligand into a molten globule when you use a dictionary with no restraints! (thanks for the prompt, L.Masso) Coot 1.1.12 out next week! #coot

After looking at EM maps for months, the Holton "Untangle Challenge" map looks so pretty...

A few slides from Lucrezia Catapano's recent CCP4 Study Weekend presentation - there will be a CCP4 YouTube video at some stage

Lucrezia Catapano has a style all her own when giving a Coot presentation...

Coot has a built-in Poisson–Boltzmann solver and can make electrostatic surfaces quite snapily these days (8r96 in this example) #coot

Coot 1.1.11 Released o FEATURE: One can now dynamically edit SMILES in layla o FEATURE: Anisotropic atom representation [thanks to Global Phasing] o FEATURE: Electrostatic representation [Stuart McNicholas] o FEATURE: Function partition_map_by_chain() added and more. #coot
