Hi Henrike, I use CCP4's "contact" program:
#!/bin/bash # find bad contacts: list all CA-CA distances < 3.8A between non-adjacent residues # in a well-folded protein, these should be very rare (1 contact in 1000 residues) # KD 20.12.21 grep CA $1 > /tmp/temp.pdb contact xyzin /tmp/temp.pdb <<EOF | awk '/LIST OF CONTACTS/,/FONT COLOR/{print}' | grep -v FONT MODE IRES LIMIT 0 3.8 EOF rm /tmp/temp.pdb If you are interested in non-CA atoms, modify accordingly. But this should give you the idea.
