Hej everybody,
my question is related to this post.
I am just analyzing a structure and really like the way Molprobity puts
out information about hydrogen bonds and vdW contacts and so on.
It is also possible to take advantage of this analysis in phenix
during/after refinement, because Coot provides a graphical interface for
visualization of the Molprobity output - however, Coot is not my
favorite program for making nice figures.
So I just wonder whether it might be of general interest to the pymol
community if someone would write a plug-in to integrate the Molprobity
output in PyMol?
I can definitely not do it, but maybe this could be an interesting
feature request to the PyMol developers?
All the best,
Tim

Hi Bondurant,
I really like the merging of the graphic beauty of pymol with the
detailed depictions of reduce and probe. I have a method that is a
bit clunky for doing what you ask, but I don't know if it ever made it
to the mainstream in MolProbity. The caveat of wanting to work with a
ligand makes it a bit harder to explain so my apologies in advance if
things aren't 100% clear but here goes....
1. Make sure you have a reduce definition file for your ligand. If
the ligand had been deposited in the PDB before ~2012 then the
reduce_wwPDB_het_dict file found
(http://kinemage.biochem.duke.edu/software/reduce.php) should have
it, otherwise here's an example:
RESIDUE ACP 11
CONECT P 4 O1 O2 O3 O4
CONECT O1 1 P
CONECT O2 1 P
CONECT O3 1 P
CONECT O4 2 P C1
CONECT C1 3 O4 O5 C2
CONECT O5 1 C1
CONECT C2 4 C1 HC1 HC2 HC3
CONECT HCH1 1 C2
CONECT HCH2 1 C2
CONECT HCH3 1 C2
END
HET ACP 8
HETNAM ACP ACETYL PHOSPHATE
FORMUL ACP C2 H3 O5 P1 2-
2. download the reduce and probe executables also from
http://kinemage.biochem.duke.edu/
3. run reduce make sure to use the -DB flag to input your ligand
dictionary
4. run probe with a command something like:
probe -both "chaina 88 (ATOM_OG1 | ATOM_HG1)" "chainx 1"
CheY_A88T_AcP_H.pdb
Where chain A in this case is the protein and the hydroxyl of Thr 88
is the only relevant interacting group with chain X the ligand.
5. convert the probe output to a python script to render the cgo
objects in pymol using the attached perl script. ./probe_to_cgo
[input probe dots] [output pymol cgo]
6. use the run command in pymol to execute the python script and draw
the cgo output.
If this all works the first go then amazing! If not I can try to help
get things working, but it's been a few years since I last used these
tools.
Best of Luck!

Hello community,
I would like to draw a figure similar to this one
http://www.cell.com/cms/attachment/615980/4968633/gr1.jpg
showing the clashes between a potential ligand and the protein.
The only way i know how to do this in pymol is using the
show_bumps plugin, but i don't really like the "red disks" format.
Could anyone tell me how i could easily draw something similar to
those red spikes from the example to represent the clashes in
pymol or any other program? I'm able to do it using molprobity and
kinemage, but there's no much possibilities for editing and to get
it in printing quality.
Thanks
