[PyMOL] Need help with RMSD ( I am a member of this community now , yayy)

2011-06-15 Thread Babban Mia
Hello Pymol Users


I am quite new to python and more specifically to PYTHON ,PYMOL interface
hence I urgently need a help from you.

I simple need to calculate the RMSD between two pdb files and use that rmsd
for further programming but somehow I can not figure how to do it

This is what I have written till now
*[codes are in bold]*

*
*
*from pymol import cmd*
*
*
*cmd.load(pdb%04d.pdb%ener1)*
*cmd.load(pdb%04d.pdb%ener2)*

This I believe should just load in the PDBs through PYMOL  [both these pdbs
are in the same directory]

*rms=cmd.fit(pdb*   )so I do not know how to get the RMSD using this
function ( I need for CA atoms only)

This is the only part where I am getting jammed . I only need the RMSD
values between the structures(without any changes to the structures)



Can you advise me further on this one ?
Any help would be appreciated.

Hello,

 I am quite new to python and more specifically to PYTHON ,PYMOL interface
 hence I urgently need a help from you.

Welcome!  This list has about 1500 people on it and is accepting of
new users.  A couple hints to get you started.  First, you can type
help commandName in PyMOL to help on a given command. You can also
type help to get general help. Next, we have a community-editable
wiki, the PyMOLWiki (http://pymolwiki.org) that has thousands of pages
of information to get you up to speed.

 rms=cmd.fit(pdb   )    so I do not know how to get the RMSD using this

Here, cmd.fit is expecting two protein selections to fit.  So, we can
give it something like:

# fit protein pdb0001 to pdb0002

v = cmd.fit(pdb0001, pdb0002)

# print the RMS

print v


But as you stated you only want alpha carbons you can restrict the
selection of each protein to just alpha carbons using the selection
syntax name CA:

v = cmd.fit(pdb0001 and name CA, pdb0002 and name CA)

print v


To learn more about PyMOL selections please see
(http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Category:Selecting).


 This is the only part where I am getting jammed . I only need the RMSD
 values between the structures(without any changes to the structures)

If you want PyMOL to do the calculation, but leave the structures
untouched use cmd.rms instead of cmd.fit.  They both have a
similar syntax.

Cheers,

Hi,

 Just a small doubt
 cmd.load(pdb%04d.pdb%ener1)
 cmd.load(pdb%04d.pdb%ener2)
 so   if
 ener1 =0001
 ener2 =0002
 The program will understand  the pdb0001 and pdb0002 in
 v = cmd.fit(pdb0001 and name CA, pdb0002 and name CA)  or not ?
 or would I need to assign them some names while loading them ?

When you load fileXYZ.pdb into PyMOL, the PyMOL object will be
called fileXYZ--we just cut off the .pdb when making the object
name. So, in your example above

 cmd.load(pdb%04d.pdb%ener1)
 cmd.load(pdb%04d.pdb%ener2)

will create two new objects, one called pdb0001 and pdb0002 and
the rms command would be:

cmd.rms(pdb0001 and name CA, pdb0002 and name CA);

If you're scripting this, then you can write the RMS command like this:

cmd.rms( pdb%04d and name CA % ener1, pdb%04d and name CA % ener2 )


 When and How do I do the import like  from pymol import cmd,stored ?
 Where do I place them in my Python script ?

Create a script called myRMSScript.py with all the Python/PyMOL
commands in it.  At the top of that file put:

import pymol
from pymol import cmd

To run the script just type run ./path/to/myRMSScript.py and PyMOL
will run the script.


 Any other function other than FIT like rms_cur,rms, allign that I could use
 to get rmsd between these PDBS
 both my pdbs are of the same protein

Please read the help I suggested earlier.  If you type help fit you
will see that there are lots of alignment and fitting commands in
PyMOL, including: align, super, pair_fit, rms, rms_cur, intra_fit,
intra_rms, and intra_rms_cur--and each of those commands has
corresponding help documentation and PyMOLWiki page.

Cheers,

-- Jason


 Please advise
 Best
