Dear Bernhard, The user manual is quite informative where it comes to making selections. There is not a polar/nonpolar grouping made for you, but you can easily select the residues based on their names (resn or r.).
select basic, (resn lys,his,arg) As a side note, on this as well as all other user lists, it is preferred that you set a subject line which reflects the question you're asking. Since many of us are dedicating our own time to answering, we usually make a preselection of the mails we could possibly provide an answer to. Mails without subject are likely to be thrown away unread. Cheers, Tsjerk On 2/23/07, Bernhard Kleine <b...@gmx.net> wrote:
Hello and good morning, being newly arrived in this list, I am a molecular biologist working recently in endocrinology and epigenetics and living in the black forest in the south west of germany. Since I am not fully content with the picture quality which I can get with Rasmol, I am trying to use PyMOL. However, since I try to adopt my rasmol script for use in PyMOL, I am unable to find how to select individual amino acids, or e.g. polar or basic residues. I am quite convinced that such shortcuts exist. But either the refmanual oder the usermanual lack mentioning any typ of aminoacids, so far as I can say (searching with Acrobat reader). It would be a pleasure if anyone could point me to the proper information.
