## Software Description

The (Crystallographic Object)-Oriented Toolkit Displays maps and models
and allows certain model manipulations: idealization, real space
refinement, manual rotation/translation, rigid-body fitting, ligand
search, solvation, mutations, rotamers, Ramachandran plots, model
validation and other stuff. Coot is part of the CCP4 Molecular Graphics
Project. The Molecular Graphics Project has a wide remit and
crystallographic map fitting is a part of that. The Coot functions have
their own interface and some of them will be integrated into CCP4mg in
due course.
