hi all,
the standard protein backbone rep in Jmol is straight-line
connections between adjacent alpha carbons (adjacent in the sequence,
of course). but I seem to recall a more 'wormy' possibility, perhaps
a spline curve instead of a straight line. does anyone else know
what I'm talking about? and, even better, does anyone know the
command for it?
I think that you want:
trace on;
trace 0.5;
trace 1.0;
color trace structure;
'trace' is a spline that passes through the mid-points between the
alpha-carbon atoms.
this is the same rendering that is used for turn and random coil in
'cartoons'.
<doh>
yes, trace is what I want, of course. <sigh> how embarrassing.
thanks for not dope-slapping me, Miguel, even though I deserved it. :-)
I actually spent time searching the lit archive for 'wormy', too.
