Building from source in a nutshell (see https://integrativemodeling.org/latest/doc/manual/installation.html for general IMP installation instruction):

• Make sure IMP prerequisites are installed
• Install the CGAL package
• Install the protobuf package
• Download IMP source code as explained in the installation manual
• Build IMP according to online instructions
• The npctransport installation can be tested using ctest, eg - "ctest -R npctransport"

Versions: 4.5

• optimization of ball size used to define close pair range results in faster runs for larger particles

The fg_simulation command line tool can be used to run simulations of NPC FG repeat domains using this module. For an example of its use, see our 2018 study in Nature.
