[PyMOL] Secondary Structure assignments and Molscript compatability

2004-03-04 Thread Tony Giannetti
Hello All, I am a long-time Molscript user and devotee and am trying to make the move to PyMol for various reasons. A lot of the structures I work with are at moderate-low resolution making automated secondary-structure prediction difficult and most of them don't contain SS flags in the origin

I've got a crude interface to the RasMol code which lets you run RasMol's secondary structure assignment code from PyMOL at: http://www.rahul.net/pcm/rasmolapi.tar.gz I don't make any promises as to how well it works or whether I will ever get around to cleaning up the ugly code. If there are

OK, heres what we've got: The DSSP program is available for Linux and Windows from http://www.cmbi.kun.nl/swift/dssp/ . I have written a Python script that parses the output of DSSP and alters the annotation in PyMOL. You just start the script, then You have a dssp command available. The s

Nat, You read my mind. Having just converted the output of DSSP manually to PDB records last week I was eyeing the source to util.ss wondering how to turn it into a dssp parser. Ideally util.ss could become a shell that would know (from the environment?) if dssp or similar was installed, th

Dear Pymol users, I am very pleased with Pymol as a visualization tool for the generation of publication quality images, but I am having a problem with one aspect of the problem. I am working with several PDB files that do not have embedded secondary structure assignments. I have been trying to
