LSim superposes macromolecular electron densities and computes a structural similarity score. Its computations scale linearly with the size of the molecules being compared.
The LSim alignments are conceptually unrelated to biochemical structural elements and, therefore, are unbiased and appropriate for structure-only protein similarity studies.
Installation:
Unpack the distribution file:
tar -xzvf lsim-linux.tar.gz
Move to file directory:
