In its current form, the DNATCO web service primarily performs
assignment of nucleotide conformers classes (NtCs) to dinucleotides in nucleic
acid structures and structure validation. While some functionality for
NtC-aware structure modelling and refinement is available, it is currently
rather rudimentary and depends on external tools that have to be used
separately outside DNATCO. The main goal of the "ReDNATCO"
(placeholder name) is to expand the functionality of DNATCO to make it a useful
and convenient tool for structural refinement as well.
In this talk we will present an overview of the current and planned features.
Most importantly, we hope to get involved with other crystallographers to
discuss how they do things and seek collaborations to make sure that the new
DNATCO provides the necessary functionality and user convenience.
