NPNumber Collaborative Computational Project

Key Points

  • The central aim is to offer an integrated suite of programs for structure determination of macromolecules using X-ray crystallography.
  • The suite comprises various programs and libraries for flexible function coverage.
  • Programs are primarily written in standard Fortran77.
  • Compatible with major platforms under both Unix and VMS.
  • Widely used globally in the field of structural biology.
  • Programs are connected by standard data file formats.

Abstract

The CCP4 (Collaborative Computational Project, number 4) program suite is a collection of programs and associated data and subroutine libraries which can be used for macromolecular structure determination by X-ray crystallography. The suite is designed to be flexible, allowing users a number of methods of achieving their aims and so there may be more than one program to cover each function. The programs are written mainly in standard Fortran77. They are from a wide variety of sources but are connected by standard data file formats. The package has been ported to all the major platforms under both Unix and VMS. The suite is distributed by anonymous ftp from Daresbury Laboratory and is widely used throughout the world.
