RELION

RELION is a cryo-EM structure determination package. On the TAU HPC cluster it runs on the dedicated gpu-relion partition with X11 forwarding.

Requirements

  • Access to the gpu-relion-users_v2 account — contact HPC support if you don't have it
  • SSH connection with X11 forwarding enabled: ssh -X username@slurmlogin.tau.ac.il

Starting a RELION Session

Start an interactive job on the GPU RELION partition with X11:

srun --ntasks=1 -p gpu-relion-pool -A gpu-relion-users_v2 --qos=owner --x11 --pty bash

Load the RELION module:

module load relion/relion-4.0.1

Launch RELION:

relion

Notes

  • RELION requires X11 — make sure your SSH connection was made with -X or -Y
  • For batch processing pipelines, RELION can submit its own Slurm jobs from within the GUI
  • For access or issues contact hpc@tauex.tau.ac.il
