Dear Kanika,

I do not know how to calculate the Rg using PyMOL. If it is possible, I would 
also like to know how. However, there are other possibilities.
Do you have the pdb file of the molecule from what you want to calculate the 
radius of gyration? If so, you may use the program CRYSOL (download: 
http://www.embl-hamburg.de/biosaxs/crysol.html), which is used for comparison 
with SAXS data. When you run that program, you can search within the log file 
the parameter "Envelope Rg". But, keep in mind that the program takes into 
account a solvation layer of about 3 Angstroms.
You can also try the HydroPro program 
(http://leonardo.inf.um.es/macromol/programs/hydropro/hydropro.htm), which I 
believe that makes the Rg calculation, but I rarely use this program for that. 
I am sure that HydroPro can provide you the hydrodynamic radius, but I am not 
sure about the Rg.

Regards,
Julio

Assunto: [PyMOL] radius of gyration


After going through the script library and tutorial, I couldn't find 
information about calculating the radius of gyration. Is this possible in 
pymol? And after this I want to generate a virtual cube around it of a specific 
length.



Thanks,

Kanika
