a short description of pret-a-porter Biskit applications

The prime purpose of Biskit is to offer you a tool box for creating your own structural bioinformatics programs. In order to make most of this package, you should program your own python scripts around the Biskit library. However, Biskit already contains ready-made programs for several applications -- ranging from a simple script to extract a sequence from a PDB file to a complex workflow for flexible protein-protein docking and a pipeline for automatted homology modelling.

We here give tutorials for some main applications:

You can find the full range of programs in the folder biskit/scripts:
