It is a bit clunky - you can use siperpose molecules - fit residues to fit a selected range (1-40; 60-100 say) and write out a complete fitted pdb file. Then you could use a VERY old program
compar  xyzin1 original.pdb xyzin2 fitted.pdb  (xyzin3 another.pdb)
and it will match all pairs with the same RESIDUE ID and give the RMSD distance

There is documentation for it.

Hi, All,

I have a question about rmsd calculation.

I have some pdbs (100 residues ) and these pdbs differ pretty much only the loop region 40-60. Is there any easy way that I can superimpose the fixed region ( 1-40,60-100) and then calculate the rmsd for the loop?I need to calculate for each pair, so if there is any script or program available to do this quickly, that would be great.

Thanks.

Jenny
