Re: [PyMOL] Ligand surface: color issue after ray

Hi Tobias - It seems to me that you may not have hidden the lines/sticks from the object where you’ve shown the surface. For overlapping objects, the normal non-ray-traced view appears to give precedence to the object that was present in the viewer first. Try disabling and re-enabling your two

Hi Kelvin, the "psico" module provides a "fasta" command which maintains the gaps. However, psico will not work with PyMOL 0.99 which is quite old and uses an ancient Python version (psico requires Python 2.6 and and the PyMOL 1.2 API). Psico installations instructions and download link: http:/

Re: [PyMOL] Obtaining accurate FASTA sequence from PDBs

2014-03-31 Thread Edward A. Berry
Due to the possibility of insertion codes and non-sequential residue numbering, I believe there is no way to avoid aligning the residues in the ATOM records with the sequence in SEQRES in order to find gaps. I don't know of a program to do this. The structure validation server at RCSB ADIT2 makes t

[PyMOL] Ligand surface: color issue after ray

Dear all, I would like to show a transparent surface of a ligand, with the ligand 'inside' as sticks. I created a new object of the ligand, then tried to show the surface, which fails. With this information here: http://sourceforge.net/p/pymol/mailman/message/27299068/ # do not ignore surfacing

[PyMOL] Obtaining accurate FASTA sequence from PDBs

2014-03-31 Thread Kelvin Luther
Hello, I am using PyMOL 0.99rc6. I am wondering if there is a means to obtain a FASTA sequence from a loaded pdb file that maintains the gaps due to missing portions of the structure? I found one program that will strip the sequence from pdb files, but it simply reads out the amino acids tha

[PyMOL] Plotting a rectangle to show clipping slab

Hi there, I am trying to plot a series of clipping slabs through a protein structure, but would like to show an additional figure to indicate where the 'slices' are from (similar to what you would do with a MRI or CT-scan in medicine - something akin to ' http://lmi.bwh.harvard.edu/papers/pic
