Abstract
Model building starting from, for example, a molecular-replacement solution with low sequence similarity introduces model bias, which can be difficult to detect, especially at low resolution. The program mrtailor removes low-similarity regions from a template PDB file according to sequence similarity between the target sequence and the template sequence and maps the target sequence onto the PDB file. The modified PDB file can be used to generate external restraints for low-resolution refinement with reduced model bias and can be used as a starting point for model building and refinement. The program can call ProSMART [Nicholls et al. (2012), Acta Cryst. D68, 404-417] directly in order to create external restraints suitable for REFMAC5 [Murshudov et al. (2011), Acta Cryst. D67, 355-367]. Both a command-line version and a GUI exist.
