This page describes the contents of the practical hands-on sessions in Diamond (11th-12th November 2018).

Computers

Activating Dynamo

To activate Dynamo

 export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6
 activate_dynamo 

Start a Dynamo window

Type in the shell:

dynamo

Run Dynamo projects in a shell

  • go to the folder containing the project. Type the name of the project executable (extension .exe). For a project called myProject:
./myProject.exe

Program

Before the hands-on session, we will go to this presentation for a general introduction of the Dynamo software.

General Introduction

Clicking particles in the Starters guide

Guided presentation:

We will take one hour to go over the basic technical aspects of Dynamo.

  • tutorial on basic elements: help, data and metadata formats.
  • tutorial on the basic concept in Dynamo alignment: the project.

Working on your own:

  • Basic walkthrough: on synthetic data. Covers creating a catalogue, picking particles, launching a project. (~1.5 hours)
  • Advanced starters guide on a real tomogram. (~3 hours)
  • Further work:
    • tutorial on the use command line operations for general purposes.
    • tutorial on the use of the command line to manage projects.

Geometric modeling

Geometric modeling for surfaces and filaments

Short guided presentation:

Template matching

Working on your own:

  • We will follow this walkthrough for automated identification of proteosomes on a real tomogram through template matching. (~1 hour)

Adaptive bandpass filtering

Working on your own:

  • We will follow this walkthrough to create a small synthetic data set that illustrates the principles of adaptive bandpass filtering, a way of conducting a golden standard alignment procedure . (~40 mins)

Classification

Short guided presentation:

Creation of 3D scenes

Working on your own:

Further support material.

  • Walkthrough on depiction and manipulation of triangulations (synthetic data).

Additional tools
