[PyMOL] Fwd: sphere diameter

2007-11-27 Thread Tsjerk Wassenaar
Hi Abhinav,

Whitespace matters. In fact, the first two characters in the atom name field
of the pdb file are usually considered indicating the element type. Pymol
also does this. This means that " NA " will be considered of element type "
N", whereas "NA  " will be interpreted as being of element "NA". Likewise "
CL " will give "C", while "CL  " will give "CL". You can verify this
behaviour by issuing 'label (all),elem'.

Best,

Tsjerk

Hi Tsjerk,
 did you get this email. Ok I donot need this, but I am really confused.
 Thanks for the help with changing ionic radii..

Okey, something wierd and I do not understand. I am attaching 2 pdb
files and 2 png's from pymol. 3.pdb, 4.pdb, 3.png and 4.png.

Now the only difference between 3 and 4 are in blank spaces. and the
sphere radius change between the two pdb files. In one Na is bigger
and in other Cl is ..

any ideas??.. bug or feature!!

[PyMOL] FW: Pymol question

Based on the BIOMT records in the PDB file:

REMARK 350 BIOMOLECULE: 1
REMARK 350 APPLY THE FOLLOWING TO CHAINS: I, J, A, B, C, D, E, F, G,
REMARK 350 H, a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h
REMARK 350   BIOMT1   1  1.00  0.00  0.000.0
REMARK 350   BIOMT2   1  0.00  1.00  0.000.0
REMARK 350   BIOMT3   1  0.00  0.00  1.000.0
REMARK 350   BIOMT1   2 -1.00  0.00  0.00  127.67500
REMARK 350   BIOMT2   2  0.00  1.00  0.000.0
REMARK 350   BIOMT3   2  0.00  0.00 -1.00  237.12600

You can create the biological unit as follows:

# load the PDB file

fetch 1zbb, async=0

# create a copy

create 1zbb_2, 1zbb

# transform the copy according to the second matrix above

alter_state 1, 1zbb_2, (x,y,z)=(127.675-x, y, 237.126-z)

Re: [PyMOL] Precompiled pymol won't work on Fedora 6

2007-11-27 Thread DeLano Scientific
Nian,

We have now tried several Fedora 6 installs, but have been entirely unable
to reproduce this problem.  Therefore, we do not believe that this is a
general issue with PyMOL itself, but rather, with some specific Fedora 6
installations, apparently yours included.

Please confirm that the version of PyMOL you are using is 1.0r2.  If you do
not have it, you should be able to d/l it by going to http://delsci.com/dsc
from any UTSWMC on-campus computer.

Cheers,
Warren
