[PyMOL] neighbor selection

2003-02-06 Thread Nukri Sanishvili
Hi there,

I have bunch of structures in the session but only one of them (molA)
displayed.
I'm trying to select atoms within a given radius from my point of interest.
When I do
select cont,(/molA//s/401 around 4)
it sure selects all atoms from molA that are within 4 A from residue 401 but
it also selects
ALL other atoms from the current session (but not displayed) that are within
4 A.
What needs improvement - the program or my command?
Cheers,
n.

RE: [PyMOL] Pymol and Autodock

2003-02-06 Thread DeLano, Warren
SD is a file format for small molecule ligands based around the MDL MOL file 
(CTAB core).

http://www.mdli.com/downloads/literature/ctfile.pdf

Advantages: 
simplicity
easy to parse
supported by most cheminformatics packages
captures valence, stereochem, charge
2D or 3D
more extensible than PDB (arbitrary tags)

Disadvantages: 
999 atom limit (only useful for small molecules!)
  no standard conventions for storing of atom names or types.
fixed field lengths

Cheers,
Warren

Sorry, what's SD?

PyMOL does support the MODEL and ENDMDL tags, but so far they've only been
tested with NMR structures (as far as I know).  With different ligands in
one PDB file, it may be necessary to force PyMOL treat each state as a
separate entity using the "discrete=1" flag.

load ligands.pdb,discrete=1

Unfortunately, reading of MODEL and ENDMDL records is not (yet)
optimized, so this might bog down.

Read-in performace would be better if you could convert your
multiligand PDB file to an SD file.

No, but you might be able to use PyMOL's "chempy" models to create your
own (depending on how easy/hard it would be to read ".trj" files in
Python.

But of course I forgot to include the script, which is very short:

# make_pov.py
# Do "run make_pov.py" from within pymol and then execute the script
# with "make_pov('povray.inp')" to create the povray.inp file.
# 
from pymol import cmd

def make_pov(file):
(header,data) = cmd.get_povray()
povfile=open(file,'w')
povfile.write(header)
povfile.write(data)
povfile.close()

[PyMOL] Pymol and Autodock

2003-02-06 Thread Chris
Hi Guys

A couple of quick questions for anyone running Pymol and Autodock.
1. Doing Get dockings in autodock  writes out a PDB formatted file, and uses
the ` MODEL ' and ` ENDMDL ' records to denote the different dockings is
there anyway to get pymol to read these as individual "states" ? - If not
does anyone know of a program that will read these files (other than
autodock tools (For some reason Autodocktools comes back with strange OpenGl
errors (very odd seen as Pymol works great on my wee linux box)) .
2. Is there anyway to directly import Trajectory files (.trj) from simulated
annealing dockings into Pymol ? for doing animations in Pymol

Cheers in advance

Chris






Re: [PyMOL] running pymol in command mode

2003-02-06 Thread Kristian Rother
Dear Matt,

There is a straighter way to do it. Try just 

pymol.com pymol_script.pml

(This works at least on my Linux machine).
You can also try

cat pymol_script.pml | pymol.com -p

or even

tail -f pymol_script.pml | pymol.com -p

The latter allows one to append lines to the pymol script from an external 
program, which will be executed immediately.
