There was a feature in Rasmol that allowed one to display a Ramachandran plot of the selected residues. This was a great tool for teaching protein structure. For example, you could separately display Ramachandran plots for all glycines in a protein, all prolines, or all non-glycine and non-proline residues. Or you could choose a residue with a high helix potential or a high beta sheet potential. Or you could select helix (or sheet or turn) and display the Ramachandran plot for those residues. Doing this really helped the students learn what Ramachandran plots mean.
In Jmol it seems that the "plot Ramachandran" command constructs a plot for the entire protein, not the selected residues. Is there any possibility of adding this function to Jmol? Would others find this useful? Jeff Cohlberg -------------------------------------- Jeffrey A.
