hi everyone,
i know you're all busy doing experiments, writing papers, teaching and running 
the whole joint while being underpaid on fixed-period contracts, but wouldn't 
it be nice if someone were to put together a dedicated PDB screen editor? my 
pals in HH tell me to edit PDB files from the command line too, but the last 
time i edited anything that way was in 1980 using a PDP11-44 – and even then 
people thought i was mad! i think computers have got better in the meantime 
too....
cheers
jon

Thanks Peter. Given there are only 150 residues in my PDB file, it is doable 
(if I can't work out a script)!

Kind regards,
Yahui

Dear Yahui,

It is possible to set the B-factor (temperature factor) for all atoms in a 
residue at once using the residue info dialogue in Coot (Measures>Residue 
Info... in Coot 0.9). You would still have to go through residue by residue, 
though.

For something more automated, you could look into scripting changes using 
command line text editing of the PDB files.

Cheers,

Subject: [ccp4bb] replacing B-factor column and color accordingly
Happy New Year, everyone!

I am looking for a PDB editing tool to replace the B-factors numbers with 
another column of numbers, then color the structure by pseudo-B-factors in 
ChimeraX. All the atoms of one individual residue will have the same number at 
the B-factor column. I can possibly edit the coordinate manually atom by atom, 
which is not very fun to do. Does anybody know of any programme doing this 
process?

Thanks a lot!

Kind regards,
Yahui
