In PyMOL Wiki, there is a “contact map visualizer” plugin providing users to inspect the protein intramolecular contacts. However, this plugin requires “PyGame”, “Tkinter”, “PIL (python image library)” and most importantly, Gromacs! I used Fink (Mac OSX 10.6.8) to successfully install Gromacs 4.1 but Fink reported problems while installing pygame. So I can generate xpm [...]
[KPWU blog] [PyMOL] DNA?example II
DNA?example II
Follow up previous post, here shows several modes available in PyMOL to display the ribbon/chain of DNA/RNA. Example molecule: B-form DNA PDB code: *2L8Q Running version, PyMOL 1.3 (x11 version on MacOS 10.6) The previous version use “oval” to show the ribbon of DNA. Here are some other ways to show the ribbon: 1. default http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=kpwu.wordpress.com&blog=76132&post=446&subd=kpwu&ref=&feed=1

[KPWU blog] [PyMOL] example of DNA
example of DNA
Several private emails request me to show some examples of DNA/RNA using PyMOL. I am not familiar with commands related to nucleic acids in PyMOL because I never have chance to study DNA/RNA. I made some posts few years ago just for fun. Here is a step-by-step re-cap I make followed by our old post. http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=kpwu.wordpress.com&blog=76132&post=429&subd=kpwu&ref=&feed=1
