SSETracer is a tool for detecting secondary structures in cryo-EM images. It is capable of detecting helices and beta sheets in images of medium resolution.[1]
StrandTwister is a tool for determining beta strand locations from detected beta sheets.[2]
AxisComparison is a tool for evaluating the accuracy of detected helices and beta strands in lateral and longitudinal error.[3]
SSETracer, StrandTwister, and AxisComparison can now be used from within USCF Chimera. Necessary files are in the full download below.
