NOW ONLINE: free TBM assessment software from Richardson Lab
![Post Post](./styles/prosilver/imageset/icon_post_target.gif)
Hi everybody! This is Daniel Keedy from Dave and Jane Richardson's lab at Duke. We were in charge of TBM/HA assessment for CASP8. This post is intended to let everybody know that the all-atom, full-model scores we implemented and utilized are now freely available on our website as the BACPAC software suite:

These tools score the following criteria: MolProbity quality, mainchain "reality", rotamer correctness, mainchain H-bond correctness, sidechain H-bond correctness, and sidechain positioning. More detailed information as well as a link to our paper can be found here:

We encourage the CASP9 assessors to use all six metrics for a well-rounded perspective on all-atom quality as well as Calpha correctness. We also encourage predictors to use the two model-only metrics (MPscore and MCRS) to evaluate the quality of their own predictions, whether retrospectively for CASP9 or proactively in CASP10. Thanks!
