What about to do a cartesian morphing with the mutated residue
added (or removed) atoms having initial ( or final) coordinates taken from
previous common atom?
Will work? Coloring may be a factor... but with a manual editing
perhaps...
you mean, for instance, if you have an Ala->Trp you call the ala 'trp', add
all missing 'trp' side-chain atoms and put them on top of the CB, and then
morph to the real trp, so the additional side-chain atoms will slowly
"explode" out of the CB and towards their final positions? (and for a Trp->Ala
mutation you could do the same thing of course, but the extra side-chain atoms
would then be "sucked up" by the CB like a black hole) yep, that is a trick
that would probably work!
if anyone gets it to work, i would be interested in seeing the result and
learning details, so i could add it to the lsqman manual or the morphing
tutorial
