Hi, I am having problems displaying proteins with unusual residue numbering, such as proteins with propeptides. An example is 1cs8, which starts off like this:
ATOM 1 N SER A 1P -32.762 23.978 22.929 0.00 34.26 N ATOM 2 CA SER A 1P -32.360 24.645 21.660 0.00 34.08 C ATOM 3 C SER A 1P -32.303 26.162 21.821 0.00 33.91 C ATOM 4 O SER A 1P -32.838 26.712 22.786 0.00 33.82 O ATOM 5 CB SER A 1P -33.338 24.274 20.541 0.00 34.28 C ATOM 6 OG SER A 1P -34.684 24.406 20.971 0.00 34.36 O . . . And later on comes the sequence corresponding to the mature protein: ATOM 1060 N ALA A 1 11.470 66.852 16.148 1.00 22.69 N ATOM 1061 CA ALA A 1 11.282 65.561 15.491 1.00 20.80 C ATOM 1062 C ALA A 1 10.621 65.677 14.113 1.00 20.33 C ATOM 1063 O ALA A 1 9.920 66.649 13.835 1.00 18.43 O ATOM 1064 CB ALA A 1 10.451 64.636 16.393 1.00 19.50 C Etc. If I open 1cs8 with PyMol, I can see everything in the "lines", "sticks" and "surface" representation, but in ribbon or cartoon mode only part of the protein is shown. What do I have to do to show the whole sequence? How do I select residues with a "P" appended to the residue number? If I say "select resi 1P-5P" I get both 1P-5P and 1-5. Any help will be appreciated! (I am using PyMol version 0.98 for Windows). - Anne -------------------------------------------- Anne Mølgaard, Ph.D. Center for Biological Sequence Analysis BioCentrum-DTU, Building 208 DK-2800 Lyngby Email: a...@cbs.dtu.dk Phone: (+45)4525 2472 --------------------------------------------
