ROTDIF

Matlab program aiming at the determination of the overall rotational diffusion tensor of a molecule from spin-relaxation data. Features isotropic, axially-symmetric, and fully anisotropic models for the overall motion.

This program is currently available from Prof. David Fushman’s group.

SPINRELAX

This program aims at the calculation of NMR spin relaxation rates R1, R2 and NOEs from one or several molecular dynamics trajectories. Different parameters may be tuned like temperature, isotropic diffusion, magnetic fields.

Additionally, experimental relaxation data may be fitted to derive an optimized CSA, isotropic rotational diffusion or S2.
