Tara,
Use Python (and the run command with .py files).
from pymol import cmd
f=open('dist.txt','w')
dst=cmd.distance('tmp','mol1///25/ha','mol1///26/ha')
f.write("%8.3f\n"%dst)
f.close()
You could measure the whole protein this way by putting a loop around the
distance command:
from pymol import cmd
f=open('dist.txt','w')
atom = cmd.get_model("mol1////ha").atom
for i in range(len(atom)-1):
sele1 = 'mol1///%s/HA'%atom[i].resi
sele2 = 'mol1///%s/HA'%atom[i+1].resi
dst=cmd.distance('tmp',sele1,sele2)
f.write("%14s %14s %8.3f\n"%(sele1,sele2,dst))
f.close()
The output "dist.txt" would then look like:
mol1///4/HA mol1///5/HA 4.748
mol1///5/HA mol1///6/HA 4.828
mol1///6/HA mol1///7/HA 4.861
mol1///7/HA mol1///8/HA 4.784
mol1///8/HA mol1///9/HA 4.936
mol1///9/HA mol1///10/HA 4.833
mol1///10/HA mol1///11/HA 4.933
mol1///11/HA mol1///12/HA 4.813
etc.
Cheers,
Warren
