Description:
The ConvertStar module converts a motive-list (also abbreviated as motl), as defined in the EM-package of Reiner Hegerl,
Martinsried, Germany (Hegerl, R. (1996). The EM Program Package: A Platform for Image Processing in Biological Electron Microscopy,
J. Struct. Biol. 116: 30-34) into a STAR file (Hall, S.R. (1991) the STAR file: A new format for electronic data transfer and archiving, J. Chem. Inf. Comput. Sci. 31(2) pp 326-333), as used in Bsoft and jsubtomo, and the other way round.
For the conversion from a STAR file to a motive-list, the STAR file has to contain at least the following data items:
| data_ |
|
|
|
| _{file extension}.3D_reconstruction.id |
{id} |
| _{file extension}.3D_reconstruction.file_name |
{filename} |
| _{file extension}.3D_reconstruction_select |
1 |
| _{file extension}.3D_reconstruction_voxel_size |
{voxel sixe} |
|
|
| loop_ |
|
| _particle.id |
|
| _particle.group_id |
|
| _particle.magnification |
|
| _particle.x |
|
| _particle.y |
|
| _particle.z |
|
| _particle.origin_x |
|
| _particle.origin_y |
|
| _particle.origin_z |
|
| _particle.view_x |
|
| _particle.view_y |
|
| _particle.view_z |
|
| _particle.view_angle |
|
| _particle.fom |
|
| _particle.select |
|
| {List of particle data} |

As defined in Hall, S.R. (1991) the STAR file: A new format for electronic data transfer and archiving, J. Chem. Inf. Comput. Sci. 31(2) pp 326-333, a STAR file can contain one or more data blocks (a data block starts with "data_" and has to contain at least the data items from above). If a STAR file contains more than one data block, the ConvertStar module creates a motive-list for every data block, otherwise only one motive-list will be created. The motive-lists will be saved as {starfilename}_{reconstruction filename}.em
If a motive-list (e.g. motivelist.em) is converted into a STAR file, the resulting STAR-file will be saved as {filename_of_motivelist}.star (e.g. motivelist.star).
Ports:
Filename
This file chooser defines the path and the filename of an existing motive-list or STAR file to convert.
