FirstGlance suggests the presence of a "putative crosslink" based solely on the distances between relevant atoms (click the link '''Detailed Methods''' in FirstGlance). Sometimes, instead of a real covalent bond crosslink, the proximity of the relevant atoms is due to errors in the atomic model that produce [[clashes]].
FirstGlance suggests the presence of a "putative crosslink" based solely on the distances between relevant atoms (click the link '''Detailed Methods''' in FirstGlance). Sometimes, instead of a real covalent bond crosslink, the proximity of the relevant atoms is due to [[alternate locations]] or small errors in the atomic model that produce [[clashes]].


For each putative crosslink suggested by FirstGlance, it is the responsibility of the user to evaluate whether it is a real covalent crosslink, or a clash. FirstGlance makes this responsibility clear (see the bottom paragraph in the snapshot under step #4 above).
