Keywords: 3D reconstruction - Cryo-electron microscopy - Fitting

Scientific Description: A program for fitting high resolution 3D protein structures into low resolution cryo-EM density maps.

Functional Description: A highly parallel fast Fourier transform (FFT) EM density fitting program which can exploit the special hardware properties of modern graphics processor units (GPUs) to accelerate both the translationnal and rotational parts of the correlation search.
