   * **Generate a suitable template**\\ Generate a reference map containing additional density, placed at just one equivalent site where the component is expected. The density can be generated synthetically,​ or by merging the icosahedral reconstruction with the density from some available reconstruction of the component. Generally it does not need to be a faithful representation of such component.   * **Generate a suitable template**\\ Generate a reference map containing additional density, placed at just one equivalent site where the component is expected.
