Hi,

I am using g_mindist to see how close get C-alphas to each other in my
chains. What I do is selecting C-alpha two times when prompted. I have
only a quick question, just to be sure: The script doesn't take into
account the distance between *neighbouring C-alpha*, isn't it?


I don't see why they wouldn't be. I suppose you'd have to look into the code to be sure. But if you choose C-alpha for analysis, then I would imagine all of those atoms are going to be considered.

If there are specific interactions you are looking for, create specific index groups for those residues, otherwise I don't know if you're going to gain much from this analysis, because the minimum distance within a protein may always occur between two specific atoms, oscillating about a certain value.

thanks!
