# cns ## Summary + **Module Name:** cns + **Support Level:** Secondary Support + **Software Access Level:** Open Access + **Home Page:** [http://cns-online.org](http://cns-online.org) ## Software Description Crystallography & NMR System (CNS) is the result of an international collaborative effort among several research groups. The program has been designed to provide a flexible multi-level hierachical approach for the most commonly used algorithms in macromolecular structure determination. Highlights include heavy atom searching, experimental phasing (including MAD and MIR), density modification, crystallographic refinement with maximum likelihood targets, and NMR structure calculation using NOEs, J-coupling, chemical shift, and dipolar coupling data. ## General Linux To load this module for use in a Linux environment, you can run the command: module load cns Depending on where you are working, there may be more than one version of cns available. To see which modules are available for loading you can run: module avail cns
