RINRUS: the Residue Interaction Network ResidUe Selector

Residue Interaction Network-based ResidUe Selector (RINRUS) is a QM-cluster model building tool for biomolecular systems. Starting from a raw PDB file, after running a series of preparation tasks, the tool will

  • select important residues for chemical reactions, and
  • generate trimmed PDB files and corresponding quantum chemical input files

RINRUS is the first tool available that performs automated and algorithmic trimming and capping of enzyme models. Reproducibility is embedded into the model construction workflow, setting new community standards.
