Hi Kristl,
I'm not sure if PyMOL can do it, but it's not too hard to do a bit of
vector algebra which gives the answer.
Let the coordinates of the nitrogens be A, B, C, D, and the iron atom F.
Compute the centre of your nitrogens:
X = (A + B + C + D) / 4
Then you wor

Hi Pymolers!
Is there a way for me to define a plane of atoms say 4 Nitrogens in a heme
complex and then determine how far out-of-plane the Fe atom is? If so
either in Pymol or another program I'd love to know the secret.
Thanks,
