Hi, Noinaj:
Thanks for your suggestion. I feel it is not the assignment problem. I tried using "cartoon tube" to show the 2nd structure and the strand part can showed up. Then I painted the molecule according to the secondary structure by using util.cbss("morphy_01","red","yellow","green") and the strand is color as "yellow" correctly in the cartoon tube mode. Then I tried another thing, I copy-pasted the second structure information from the ca trace pdb to my formal all stoms pdb, the strand showed up correctly. This means these information are correct. So I guess under the default "cartoon automatic" mode, pymol can't draw arrow for the strand residues which do not have the coordinates of N, C, O written in the PDB file. This might be a default setting of pymol I can't find to turn off or just an internal problem for "cartoon automatic" mode.
Thank you again.
Tiger

Tiger,

Unfortunately I don't have much experience with this procedure. But one thing came to mind, you can manually assign secondary structure within DEEPVIEW/SWISS PDB Viewer [EDIT]. Not sure how many pdb files you have generated for the morph, but if nothing else works, you could try manually assigning secondary structures and see how that works out. Yep, a huge pain in the buttocks I know, but it should work, in theory.

Best of Luck.


Cheers,
Nick

Hi, there:
I am trying to make a movie following the intruction at http://ginsberg.med.virginia.edu/~dcoop/Help/morph.html From Lsqman, I got a serial of PDB files morphing between two conformations. These PDB files contain only alpha carbon and non-hydrogen side-chain atoms. Then I used DSSP to include the secondary structure information ito the PDB files. In the pymol, after set cartoon_trace, 1 the helix and loop showed up nicely. But all the strands are missing. I tried several setting about cartoon but just can't get them out. Do you have any idea how to solve this problem.
Thank you.
Tiger
