I thought that some of the list members may be interested in the paper, titled "DSSR-enabled innovative schematics of 3D nucleic acid structures with PyMOL", recently published in _Nucleic Acids Research_ ( https://doi.org/10.1093/nar/gkz1222). Among other things, DSSR can dramatically simplify the depiction of G-quadruplexes by automatically detecting G-tetrads and treating them as large square blocks.
The web application interface (http://skmatic.x3dna.org/) also provides pre-calculated schematics and meta information of nucleic-acid-containing structures in the PDB. Here are some examples: * http://skmatic.x3dna.org/pdb/2lx1 * http://skmatic.x3dna.org/pdb/2grb * http://skmatic.x3dna.org/pdb/6vu1 * http://skmatic.x3dna.org/pdb_entries # 12 random entries * http://skmatic.x3dna.org/pdb_entries/recent-week * http://skmatic.x3dna.org/pdb_entries/recent-month The supplemental PDF (http://skmatic.x3dna.org/gkaa426-supp.pdf) has been written to serve as a practical guide, with complete and reproducible examples.
