* **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.
