A CCPN software course on CcpNmr Analysis and the components of the Extend-NMR pathway.

There will be a course teaching the use of the CcpNmr software suite, including CcpNmr Analysis; for spectrum visualisation, resonance assignment and data analysis. The CcpNmr software suite is an actively supported, graphical system that provides CCPN applications, which are free for academics and non-profit users, and an interface to a number of other tightly linked external programs.

The course introduces the basics of CcpNmr Analysis, covering macromolecular resonance assignment, structure calculation and NMR parameter extraction. Also, some components of the Extend-NMR software pipeline, like ARIA and CING (for structure calculation and validation) will be incorporated into the material. Topics include:
- Configuring CcpNmr Analysis
- The setup and navigation of multi-dimensional processed NMR spectra
- Peak picking and connecting peaks in related spectra
- Semi-automated and automated assignment of protein sequence
- Extraction of data for efficient relaxation rate analysis
- Generation of NOE-derived distance restraints
- Structure calculation using a web service running ARIA
- Restraint violation analysis
- Structure validation using the iCING web service
The course runs will be held over two days, on Thursday 6th and Friday 7th January 2011. Participants do not need prior experience with CCPN software, but it is assumed that all participants will be familiar with macromolecular NMR.
