Dear Thomas, Jed!
Firstly, thanks for the advise in further days I'll try Modeller software!
But also I've tried to use above advises in PyMol and in general I was
satisfy with the results.
I have just only several questions
1- What exactly is the Sculpping ? As I've understood its something like
real-time minimisation of the edited structure. Is what cases this might be
better than rigid rotation\edition of the selected bonds/ angles by
mouse-mode editing ? :)
2- I'm looking for the possible way to set the values for psi and phi
dihedral-angles.
As I understood the commands like torsion or set dihedrals need in the
definition of the edited angles. Is there more trivial way to set values
for the pre-defined backbone dihedrals like
set phi value, sele, 120
?
:)
Something like this I can do via DynoPlot plugin where I can move point on
the graph wich correspond to the pair of psi-phy angles but I need in more
accuracy way to define the exactly values of this dihedrals.
Thanks again,
James
