Hi James,
maybe something like this could help. It finds contacts between charged
sidechains and prints the number of contacts in each state (requires
get_raw_distances from [1] or [2]).
----------------------------------------------------
# region of interest
select roi, chain A
# charged residues
select positive, resn ARG+LYS and not name N+O
select negative, resn GLU+ASP and not name N+O
# increase cutoff
set h_bond_cutoff_center, 5.0
set h_bond_cutoff_edge , 5.0
# find polar contacts
delete saltbridges
distance saltbridges, roi and negative, roi and positive, mode=2
hide label
# count contacts in each state
python
try:
get_raw_distances
except NameError:
from psico.querying import get_raw_distances
for state in range(1, cmd.count_states()+1):
sb = get_raw_distances('saltbridges', state)
print ' %2d charged contacts in state %d' % (len(sb), state)
python end
--------------------------------------------------
