Re: [PyMOL] How to store matrix settings for individual scenes?

[Schubert, Carsten [JRDUS]]

Hi Thomas,

Movie won't work since the session files are distributed and need to be 
interactive. I'll try Jared's solution, if that does not work could we treat 
this as an enhancement request?

Cheers,

Hi Carsten,

What's your use case? Since movie frames can store object matrices, would 
creating an actual movie solve your problem? Example of an animated 
superposition:

# get sample data
fetch 1hbb, async=0
split_chains
delete 1hbb

# set up movie frames
mset 1x100

# make "align" modify the motion matrix (but without # instant storing to 
current frame) set matrix_mode, 1 set movie_auto_store, 0

# store object matrices to frame 1
mview store, 1, object=*

# superpose structures and store matrices to frame 100 extra_fit mview store, 
100, object=*

# optional: add scenes
color blue
scene blue, store
color red
scene red, store
mview store, 1, scene=blue
mview store, 100, scene=red


If this doesn't fit your use case, I'd go with Jared's solution of an enhanced 
scene function.

Cheers,
  Thomas

Hi Carsten -

Could you wrap the `scene` function and include storing/recalling of the 
matrices as well as the scenes?  I just whipped together the following:

```
from pymol import stored
from pymol import cmd
stored.scene_matrices = {}

def scene_store(scn):
obj_matrices = {}
# only store matrices for enabled objects
for obj in cmd.get_names(enabled_only=1):
print 'storing matrix for %s' % obj
m = cmd.get_object_matrix(obj)
print m
obj_matrices[obj] = m

stored.scene_matrices[scn] = obj_matrices
cmd.scene(scn, 'store')

def scene_recall(scn):
obj_matrices = stored.scene_matrices[scn]
for obj in cmd.get_names():
# don't try to reset objects that aren't in the recalled scene
if obj in obj_matrices.keys():
cmd.matrix_reset(obj)
cmd.transform_selection(obj, obj_matrices[obj])
cmd.scene(scn, 'recall')

cmd.extend('scene_store', scene_store)
cmd.extend('scene_recall', scene_recall)
```

This works for me with, e.g.

```
fetch 1shv, async=0
fetch 3opl, async=0
scene_store F1

super 3opl, 1shv  # changes the 3opl matrix
scene_store F2

scene_recall F1  # restores the original 3opl matrix
```

Not sure if that's closer to what you're looking for...hope it helps!

Jared

Re: [PyMOL] how can we make this kind of figure?

[Schubert, Carsten [JRDUS]]

Albert,

looks like it is from 'cutemol'. You can probably achieve a similar effect in 
Pymol

-enable perspective
-play around with occlusion (search in settings for occlusion)
-display protein with 'cartoon loop'
-show sidechains for selected residues
-fog seems to have a tint of grey in there, you could play with that setting
-not knowing the context of the figures it looks like they only displayed 
C-alphas as white spheres maybe with adjusted radii
-There seems to be some light coming from back left, so playing around with 
light positions may also be appropriate

Looks like it would require a lot of tinkering with settings, but you should be 
able to get to a similar figure.

Re: [PyMOL] auto_show_cartoon or similar

[Schubert, Carsten [JRDUS]]

Hi Ivan,

you could either try to overload the “load” function in Pymol (not sure this is 
supported) or write your own custom load function under a different name, which 
loads the protein, assigns the name of the object, hides lines and shows the 
cartoon.

Sorry, this is a rather generic answer but should point you in the right 
direction.

Hi Guilherme,

the script is not a plugin, so you cannot install it since it is missing some 
software infrastructure to work as a plugin. Simply put the script into the 
directory you are working in and run it via ‘run colorbyrmsd.py’ . This will 
add the command to the scripting interface and you can run the command like any 
other pymol command. See the wiki for the details in that regards.

Re: [PyMOL] OBJECT argument in ALIGN command - color

[Schubert, Carsten [JRDUS]]

Hi Tim,

I ran into the same issue a while back as well. I gets complicated very quickly 
when you dive deeper into the subject. Your are right the colors of the CGO 
lines seem to be hardcoded. A  way to get around this is to extract the 
matching residues with cmd.get_raw_alignment(alignment_object). The result is a 
tuple of tuples of matching atoms as determined by the alignment algorithm. You 
could then take these atoms pairs and draw distance lines between them. These 
distance lines can be customized with color, linewidth, etc.

It has been a while since I worked on this, but I believe that the assignment 
of pairs is a non-trivial issue and sometimes fraught with mismatches. So 
manual checking against a sequence alignment is always a good idea especially 
for rather unrelated proteins.

I do have a script which can accomplish this, it is based on “colorbyrmsd.py”. 
However it is not ready for primetime, but I can share this with you if there 
is interest. Contact me offline to arrange something.

Cheers,

Carsten

Subject: [PyMOL] OBJECT argument in ALIGN command - color




Hi:



I am trying to use the Alignment Objects (i.e., lines between the paired 
aligned atoms) created by using the OBJECT argument of the ALIGN command to 
illustrate domain movement between the superimposed ligand-bound and unbound 
forms of an enzyme.



I successfully made the basic aligned image, and now I want to tweak it.



Is it possible to change the color of the Alignment Object lines between paired 
atoms? For me, they display only in yellow. From what I have read online these 
lines are CGO objects with the color hardwired in upon creation, and so it 
can’t be changed in PyMol latter on. However, I haven’t been able to find a way 
to assign a color upon creation. Is there a way to assign a specific color?



Additionally, I have seen this type of image where the lines between the paired 
aligned atoms are two colors, with half of the line in one color (say blue) and 
the other half another color (say red) to better illustrate which protein is 
the origin of each end of the connecting line. I haven’t discovered a way to 
make these bi-colored lines in ALIGN. Any ideas?



I have tried the open source version 1.8.0, plus several earlier versions from 
various origins (all on Macs) with similar results.





Thanks much for any ideas.

Re: [PyMOL] default fetch format

[Schubert, Carsten [JRDUS]]

You may want to form you own opinion and take a look at this thread and others 
in CCP4

https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?A2=ccp4bb;8e513bea.1308

I hope the link works. There has been extensive and heated debate over the 
merits of mmCIF vs. PDB on the same BB. The wwPDB is pushing mmCIF, which was 
developed as an ARCHIVAL format, but in my opinion the community as a whole is 
rather reluctant to accept mmCIF as a WORKING format. The distinction between a 
working and archiving format is vital in this context. 
As far as I am concerned the PDB format as a working format is unmatched in its 
utility (try to concatenate 2 structures in both formats or prepare a file for 
MR and you see what I mean), but has drawbacks, some of which would be adapted 
by an extended PDB format.
So as long as the current programs support PDB, I really could care less what 
the wwPDB thinks; however if programs drop support for the PDB format, I'll be 
more than happy to look for alternatives...

Re: [PyMOL] on coloring residues based on y values in the x y z coordinates

[Schubert, Carsten [JRDUS]]

If you have access to the incentive version, I would recommend looking at the 
new properties capabilities in Pymol. The distances can be nicely encoded in a 
property and rendered with spectrum w/o having to resort to messing with other 
properties like B-factors. I believe the docs at Schrodinger contain examples 
to that end.

Re: [PyMOL] Ray tracing on PBS queue with multiple cores?

[Schubert, Carsten [JRDUS]]

Dan,

pymol has a setting “max_threads” which (AFIK) controls the number of CPUs on a 
multicore machine used during rendering. The program tries to set these to a 
reasonable default value, but if that fails you can try to do this yourself. I 
don’t think it is possible to spread the same job over multiple CPUs when these 
are located on different boxes.

Re: [PyMOL] Phosphorylation

[Schubert, Carsten [JRDUS]]

Hi Melanie,

funny you ask. Just did this myself a week ago...

To reverse the morph  A->B to B->A  to create a continuous loop you need a bit 
of python scripting, the same for gluing stuff together at the end. This 
example needs to be adapted for your needs, but should get you started. For 
coloring between the states look at the script “spectrum_states” from the 
script repository on the wiki.

Hi!

Recently, i have been trying to assemble a PyMol video of the phosphorylation 
of the MAP kinase ERK from deactivated to activated to deactivated stages. 
While I have had success showing the conformational change from inactivated to 
activated (using morph mout, 1ERK, 2ERK), not only am I not sure how to 
important a phosphate image to show what causes the change, but I also do not 
know how to fuse the two morph mout scenes between the deactivated to the 
activated and the activated to the deactivated.

Would any of you happen to have any general ideas or some past email 
suggestions as to how to solve this? I know I've tried ImageJ (but the quality 
is always so poor and i have to make multiple images form my videos and then 
fuse them together) as well as a variety of other steps using just the PyMol 
program but I haven't found anything.

Re: [PyMOL] A strange mistake when working with files. KeyError: 'atomName' Selector-Error: Invalid selection name myFile

[Schubert, Carsten [JRDUS]]

Alsa,

it looks as if the error does not originate from within the script itself, but 
it caused in the chempy module, which reads the sdf files. It looks to me as if 
one of your SDF files is either corrupted or PyMol does not like it. Since you 
are logging, which file is read, why don’t you load that particular SDF file in 
by hand and see what happens. You may have to exclude that file from your 
script.

Cheers,

Re: [PyMOL] How to forbid merging of files?

[Schubert, Carsten [JRDUS]]

AE, 

you need to delete the loaded file before loading another. cmd.save will save 
ALL objects in the buffer by default as you have experienced yourself. Also 
your handling of the filename is slightly off, since pymol strips the extender 
upon loading, i.e. "test01.pdb" becomes "test01" object. You have two choices 
here, either you can retain all files in the buffer (not sure if this is your 
intention) or use Pymol as a file converter (you could use BABEL for that as 
well, might work better ?!). This is how I would write the code (untested 
however):

cmd.reinitialize()
myDir = ‘/dirWithFiles'

for filename in os.listdir(myDir):
cmd.load (filename)
obj_name = os.path.splitext(filename)[0]
filenameN = obj_name + '.mol'
cmd.save(filename, obj_name)
cmd.delete(obj_name)# comment out this line of you want to keep all 
files in the buffer

Good day,

I have several thousands of files, which I upload using the loop:

I am trying to save them one by one in a different (.mol) format. However, the 
files are saved together, i.e.: first file opened contains only molecule from 
the first file; second: first + second; third: first + second + third etc. But 
I want firstFile.readableFormat to be converted into firstFile.mol, 
secondFile.readableFormat - secondFile.mol etc, without any addition of other

Shamelessly hijacking this thread... 

...but the index page for the Wiki 
http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Category:Commands has not been updated for 
the last 10 year, according to the footer. In other words the "find_pairs"

What is the current status with regards to updates on the Wiki? Is there anyone 
from the community with time and capability willing to take this up and 
maintain this resource or are we just letting this wither away?

[PyMOL] Handling of scene specific global settings?

[Schubert, Carsten [JRDUS]]

Hi,

with the current refactoring of the scene code was there any consideration 
given to the handling of scene specific global settings? For instance "cartoon 
putty" vs. "cartoon automatic" or settings like "sphere_scale" are only applied 
once on a global scope and carry over to all scenes, even though in my script 
they have been defined individually for different scenes.
Right now I am using 1.7.3, but was wondering if anything has changed in 1.7.6 
in that regard? The issue is not new, but it would be nice if there would be a 
feature like this implemented.

Cheers,

Carsten

Re: [PyMOL] RMS over a MD trajectory.

[Schubert, Carsten [JRDUS]]

Hi Al,

based on my experience running align or super with "cycles=0" has the tendency 
to produce inferior alignment results. So depending on how similar the 
conformation of your structures are you may end up with skewed statistics. What 
I've done in the past and for a paper I'm working on now is to run the 
alignment with default parameters to get the best superposition and then 
calculate the statistics by hand from the superposed structures. Not sure if 
cmd.rms() would do this for all residues w/o outlier rejection, so I ended up 
writing code for myself. The colorbyrmsd.py 
(http://pymolwiki.org/index.php/ColorByRMSD) script gives a nice illustration 
on how to approach this this.

Re: [PyMOL] RMS over a MD trajectory.

Hi Al,

you would need to go through the Python API:

python
rms=cmd.align("mobCA","tarCA", quiet=0)
print rms
python end

rms contains a tuple with various parameters related to the superposition. The 
first value in the tuple i.e. rms[0] should be the RMS value.

Re: [PyMOL] when number of atoms changes, colors change in an uncontrolled manner

[Schubert, Carsten [JRDUS]]

Hi Efrem,

do you still see the same behavior if you disable automatic change of colors 
when loading your PDBs? The relevant setting would be auto_color set to off.
Does not quite answer your question, but could be a work-around.

Subject: [PyMOL] when number of atoms changes, colors change in an uncontrolled 
manner

Hello,

I'm running a Monte Carlo simulations in which the number of atoms in my 
simulation box changes over the course of the simulation. I print all atoms as 
Hydrogen, so the colors of them should all be white. When I load the resulting 
pdb file into PyMOL, the first frame has all atoms colored white, but by frame 
3 some of the atoms have turned black, by frame 9 some atoms have turned orange 
or blue, and by frame 15 lots of purple atoms show up (the purple atoms 
disappear in frame 16 and reappear in frame 17 along with a whole bunch of 
other colors).

I tried to troubleshoot this by typing "iterate all, print color." It printed 
"29" for the 219 atoms it iterated over (at no frame does my simulation box 
contain 219 atoms; the first 10 frames contain 200, 206, 209, 213, 206, 209, 
221, 238, 235, and 253 atoms, and the last 10 all contain more than 253 atoms). 
Since it doesn't appear to be iterating over all atoms, I suspect this 
indicates what the problem is, but I can't figure it out.

I put frame 20 into its own pdb file and displayed it in pymol, and it 
displayed all 428 atoms as white. So the problem definitely appears to be 
coming from the fact that the number of atoms in the box is changing. With 
simulations in which the number of atoms remains constant, I've never had this 
problem.

This occurs both when I run on Linux (Version 1.7.0.0) or on a Mac (Version 
1.7.2.1).

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Both pdb files are attached.

Hi Carsten & Shane,

I assume Carsten is looking for cmd.get_raw_alignment(). Recent versions of 
PyMOL can create an alignment object with all alignment commands (align, super, 
cealign). get_raw_alignment returns the (model, index) keys for all pairs.

http://pymolwiki.org/index.php/get_raw_alignment

Example:

fetch 1ubq 2lgd, async=0
super 1ubq & guide, 2lgd & guide, object=aln

python
pairs = cmd.get_raw_alignment('aln')
for pair in pairs:
  print pair, cmd.get_distance(pair[0], pair[1]) python end

Hope that helps.

Cheers,

[PyMOL] How to determine distance of matching atoms in aligned nonidentical structures?

[Schubert, Carsten [JRDUS]]

Hi,

How can I best determine the distance between matching pairs of atoms in two or 
more aligned structures? Fairly easy to do when the two aligned structures are 
the same, but how does one go about when the structures are not the same? The 
problem is that I cannot figure out how to dependably match structurally 
superimposed CA's besides a distance criterion, which does not seem to be to 
reliable in the case of large deviations. I tried to snoop around in the 
alignment object created by the align command, but did not make much inroads.

Anyone have any experience with this?

Thanks

Re: [PyMOL] How do I undo my last command I executed in the PyMOL command line and viewer?

[Schubert, Carsten [JRDUS]]

As far as I you cannot undo commands issued on the command line. This feature 
seems to be mostly targeted towards the builder interface or some other 
interactive features. For 'newbies' I would recommend opening up a session, 
starting to work on your presentation and saving frequently. That way you have 
a fallback. However it is much easier in the long run to invest some time and 
building the presentation with a script. A good way to do that would be to have 
a clear picture in mind what kind of presentation to make, then enable logging 
and work your way through your presentation, can be combined with sessions as 
well. You can use the log file as a starting point for a pml (not python based) 
script.

# CGO documentation
This documentation will attempt to shed some light on the syntax and provide
usage examples for each of the individual CGO primitives and if possible the
drawing directives

The module PyMOL\modules\pymol\cgo.py defines the following symbols,
which seem to be the current supported primitives in PyMOL. 

POINTS = 0.0
LINES  = 1.0
LINE_LOOP  = 2.0
LINE_STRIP = 3.0
TRIANGLES  = 4.0
TRIANGLE_STRIP = 5.0
TRIANGLE_FAN   = 6.0
#QUADS  = 7.0
#QUAD_STRIP = 8.0
#POLYGON= 9.0   
 

STOP   =  0.0
NULL   =  1.0
BEGIN  =  2.0
END=  3.0
VERTEX =  4.0
NORMAL =  5.0
COLOR  =  6.0
SPHERE =  7.0
TRIANGLE   =  8.0
CYLINDER   =  9.0
LINEWIDTH  = 10.0
WIDTHSCALE = 11.0
ENABLE = 12.0
DISABLE= 13.0
SAUSAGE= 14.0
CUSTOM_CYLINDER= 15.0
DOTWIDTH   = 16.0
ALPHA_TRIANGLE = 17.0
ELLIPSOID  = 18.0

#SHAPE_VERTEX   = 16.0
#SHAPE_COLOR= 17.0
#SHAPE_NORMAL   = 18.0

ALPHA  = 25.0
QUADRIC= 26.0 # NOTE: Only works with ellipsoids and disks
CONE   = 27.0 

LIGHTING   = float(0x0B50)

Header 
== 

The following header lines must be defined to import the required symbols
into the internal python interpreter:

from pymol.cgo import *
from pymol import cmd

Syntax
==

The syntax for most of the primitives seems to be of the form
PRIMITIVE ARG1 ARG2 ... ARGn

were ARG1-ARGn are the required arguments. In reality these primitives are
nothing but numbers, which represent drawing directives for the internal
OpenGL renderer and the interal raycaster. Usually they are assembled in a
list, also called a CGO object. This list can either be assembled by hand or
generated by code. In the case of "hand-assembly" into a python list the
primitives and individual arguments are comma separated. In the case of code
generated primitives the usual python list manipulation methods can be used
as well.

Example (cgo01.py from PyMOL\examples\devel)

 cgo01.py ##
from pymol.cgo import *
from pymol import cmd

# this is a trivial example of creating a cgo object consisting of a
# a single state 

# first we create a list of floats containing a GL rendering stream

obj = [
   BEGIN, LINES,# inline comments are allowed
   COLOR, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0,# white color
   
   VERTEX, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0,   # origin at (0,0,0)
   VERTEX, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0,   # extend line one unit in x
   
   VERTEX, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0,   # origin at (0,0,0)
   VERTEX, 0.0, 2.0, 0.0,   # extend line two units in y
   
   VERTEX, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0,   # origin at (0,0,0)
   VERTEX, 0.0, 0.0, 3.0,   # extend line three units in z

   END
   ]

# then we load it into PyMOL ads the object 'cgo01'

cmd.load_cgo(obj,'cgo01')

# move the read clipping plane back a bit to that that is it brighter

cmd.clip('far',-5)
 END cgo01.py ##

The whole object could have also been defined as:

obj =[2.0, 1.0, 6.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 4.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 4.0, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0,
4.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 4.0, 0.0, 2.0, 0.0, 4.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 4.0, 0.0, 0.0,
3.0, 3.0]

but much less readable.

Color
=
The color of CGO objects is set by the COLOR command and it has the form

COLOR, r,g,b,

where r g and b are floating point numbers ranging from 0.0 to 1.0 for each
of the red, green and blue channels of a colour. You may be familiar with RGB
colourspace expressed in different ways for example as integers 0 to 255
(RGB-255) or percentages (RGB-100). So you may have to do a simple numeric
conversion to get your favourite colours.


Lines
=

The LINES command draws a lines between a set of coordinates defined by the
VERTEX command. The colour of the lines can be changed at any time even
between vertices, so that the start and end line color can be different. The
color of the line will be interpolated between the start and end color. The
thickness of the line is set by LINEWIDTH. However there is a bug in the
implementation. The GL rendere

Hej everybody,
my question is related to this post.
I am just analyzing a structure and really like the way Molprobity puts out 
information about hydrogen bonds and vdW contacts and so on.

It is also possible to take advantage of this analysis in phenix during/after 
refinement, because Coot provides a graphical interface for visualization of 
the Molprobity output - however, Coot is not my favorite program for making 
nice figures.

So I just wonder whether it might be of general interest to the pymol community 
if someone would write a plug-in to integrate the Molprobity output in PyMol?

I can definitely not do it, but maybe this could be an interesting feature 
request to the PyMol developers?

All the best,
Tim

Hi Bondurant,

I really like the merging of the graphic beauty of pymol with the detailed 
depictions of reduce and probe.  I have a method that is a bit clunky for doing 
what you ask, but I don't know if it ever made it to the mainstream in 
MolProbity.  The caveat of wanting to work with a ligand makes it a bit harder 
to explain so my apologies in advance if things aren't 100% clear but here 
goes

1. Make sure you have a reduce definition file for your ligand.  If the ligand 
had been deposited in the PDB before ~2012 then the reduce_wwPDB_het_dict file 
found (http://kinemage.biochem.duke.edu/software/reduce.php)  should have it, 
otherwise here's an example:

RESIDUE   ACP  11
CONECT  P  4 O1   O2   O3   O4
CONECT  O1 1 P
CONECT  O2 1 P
CONECT  O3 1 P
CONECT  O4 2 PC1
CONECT  C1 3 O4   O5   C2
CONECT  O5 1 C1
CONECT  C2 4 C1  HC1  HC2  HC3
CONECT HCH11 C2
CONECT HCH21 C2
CONECT HCH31 C2
END
HETACP  8
HETNAM ACP ACETYL PHOSPHATE
FORMUL  ACPC2 H3 O5 P1 2-

2. download the reduce and probe executables also from 
http://kinemage.biochem.duke.edu/

3.  run reduce make sure to use the -DB flag to input your ligand dictionary

4. run probe with a command something like:
probe -both "chaina 88 (ATOM_OG1 | ATOM_HG1)" "chainx 1" CheY_A88T_AcP_H.pdb
Where chain A in this case is the protein and the hydroxyl of Thr 88 is the 
only relevant interacting group with chain X the ligand.

5. convert the probe output to a python script to render the cgo objects in 
pymol using the attached perl script.  ./probe_to_cgo [input probe dots] 
[output pymol cgo]

6. use the run command in pymol to execute the python script and draw the cgo 
output.

If this all works the first go then amazing!  If not I can try to help get 
things working, but it's been a few years since I last used these tools.

Best of Luck!

Chen,

not sure if this has made it yet into the open source version, but to quote the 
incentive version documentation “Beginning with incentive PyMOL 1.6, arbitrary 
object level and atom level properties are supported. Now, for each object and 
each atom you can possibly have an arbitrary dictionary associated with each.” 
So if you are a subscriber you could make use of that feature, which could be 
more powerful than relying either on the B-factor or Occupancy fields.

conformations of the protein into one object, as different states.  See 
http://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Load for more info on that.

Cheers,
Jared

Re: [PyMOL] boundaries/outlines of overlapping regions on surface

[Schubert, Carsten [JRDUS]]

Sid,

I'm guessing here, but may be coloring by properties (new in 1.7) may be the 
way to go. Usually I would color the residues and if you want to show the 
underlying residues I would just make another object for those.

HTH,

Hi all,

I'd like to colour different regions on the same protein surface but also draw 
the outlines/boundaries of these regions as well to show where they overlap (I 
guess I could colour the common residues in a different colour but I don't want 
to do that!). Can someone please let me know how to do this in Pymol (v 1.7)?

Many thanks.

Kind regards,
Sid.

Re: [PyMOL] apbs plugin

[Schubert, Carsten [JRDUS]]

Hi jpd,

try running APBS directly just using the .in file generated from a failed run. 
That may provide a clue as to where the problem is, i.e. within APBS itself or 
within the plugin. If it is APBS, which is throwing the error you may want to 
try to grab an updated version or the source code to compile yourself.

[PyMOL] List residues functionality ?

[Schubert, Carsten [JRDUS]]

Hi All,

probably a question for the developers, but may not hurt to ask publicly: Is 
there a functionality in Pymol to list the residues in a given selection? I am 
looking for the equivalent to the get_chains() function. I have scripted 
something up, but the code is not 100% clean and not flexible enough. For large 
molecules the performance is not great either.


 start script
def list_resi(obj=""):
"""
DESCRIPTION

"list_resi" prints and returns the unique residue IDs from the input
object. The object must be present in the object list
on the GUI. Selections are currently not implemented.
Chain or Segments are also not taken into account
USAGE

list_resi obj

EXAMPLES

list_resi my_prot

l = list_resi(my_prot)
"""

if ( obj == "" ):
obj="(all)"

ol = cmd.get_object_list()
if (obj in ol):
pass
else:
print "Error: Object (%s) not found" % obj
return

stored.resi_list = []
cmd.iterate(obj,"stored.resi_list.append(int(resi))")
stored.resi_list=list(set(stored.resi_list))  # make list unique
stored.resi_list.sort()

for i in range(0,len(stored.resi_list)):
print "%s," % stored.resi_list[i],
if ((i+1) % 10 == 0):
print ""

return stored.resi_list

# End Script

Thanks for any input

Re: [PyMOL] Error while starting Pymol 1.7

[Schubert, Carsten [JRDUS]]

Hi Roy,

I ran into the same issue last week. I am running Pymol of a laptop with an 
Intel chip driving the internal monitor and a Nvidia chip for the external 
monitor. The same error pops up when I ran Pymol using the intel graphics chip, 
but not when I run Pymol of the Nvidia head. According to Schrodinger support 
the issue has to do with the poor implementation of GL on the Intel chips. From 
what I gather from their information only the shader and volume support is 
affected/disabled even though the error message sounds rather scary.

The only solution to the problem seems to be to switch to a Nvidia based 
system, which supports the advanced GL commands.

Cheers,

Carsten

Re: [PyMOL] How to automate RMSD calculation for large no of structures

[Schubert, Carsten [JRDUS]]

Hi Om,

asides from the usual list of suspects like access permissions try double 
backslashes or  a raw string in your path-filenames. Python on Windows is a bit 
peculiar in that respect. Read up on raw strings in the Python docs.

Try

wt_file = "D:\\STUDY\\STRUCTURE_PPT\\RMSD\\Pymol\\Original\\1APS.pdb"
or
wt_file = r"D:\STUDY\STRUCTURE_PPT\RMSD\Pymol\Original\1APS.pdb"

note the 'r' at the beginning of the string indicating a raw string.

Also, a quick disclaimer: I haven't used PyMOL on Windows in over 5 years, so 
what I'm saying may not be entirely accurate.  (Others, please correct me if 
there's anything incorrect here.)


Hi I have installed Pymol in windows 7 platform. Why does it not allow me to 
save the script in the Pymol folder ?
 Is there any way to save it in Pymol working directory ?

I don't think you really want to save it to the folder where PyMOL is installed 
(if that's what you mean by "the Pymol folder").  The working directory is the 
directory from which PyMOL is launched.  You can see where this is by typing 
`pwd` at the PyMOL command prompt.  Some other shell commands work as well, 
such as `cd` and `ls`.


Thanks for your guidance.

I have modified your script as follows:
### begin script ###

from pymol import cmd
from glob import glob

# Edit these two variables with the paths to your files
wt_file = "D:\STUDY\STRUCTURE_PPT\RMSD\Pymol\Original\1APS.pdb"

# loop through the mutants
for file in glob(mut_glob):
print file
cmd.load(file,"mut")
rms = cmd.align("wt","mut")[0]
print " %s rmsd: %s" % (file,rms)
cmd.delete("mut")

### end script ###
Used the following command from the command line:  run 
D:\STUDY\STRUCTURE_PPT\RMSD\mut-rmsd.py
But I am receiving the following error:

IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 
'D:\\STUDY\\STRUCTURE_PPT\\RMSD\\mut-rmsd.py'

Please help.
thanks

Maybe try using the GUI:

1. File > Log... - create a log file (I usually call mine "log.pml"), which 
will be useful later.
2. File > Run... - navigate to your mut-rmsd.py file and run it.

Re: [PyMOL] Selection algebra issue

[Schubert, Carsten [JRDUS]]

Katherine,

not sure if that is what you are looking for but you can select for non-polymer 
residues with:

select lig, prot and organic

That will select any non polymer (protein and R(D)NA) residues present in the 
pdb. You then would need to break the selection further into the individual 
constituents, by either chain Id and resid.

Hope this helps a bit.

Subject: [PyMOL] Selection algebra issue

Hi all,
I'm trying to write a script to data mine the pdb. I'm want to look at the 
ligands in a pdb file and fish out those that meet a certain criteria. I've got 
a script that can look at the ligands all at once but I need to assess each 
ligand individually. Since I'm looking at 40,000+ pdbs I need a way to define 
them individually. I've tried variations on "%s' % (resi)" and "bymolec" but I 
can't seem to figure out how to get them parsed separately without specifying a 
number. I've also tried using index to create a tuples list and iterating from 
that but I keep hitting the same issue. I've attached a couple of the attempted 
scripts so you can laugh at my google derived python skills.
I've been trying to figure this out for a week now and I'm completely stumped. 
If anyone could nudge me in the right direction, even if it's some Pymolwiki 
article I missed, I would appreciate it immensely.
Thanks for your time,
Katherine

Re: [PyMOL] Creating coloured and transparent polyhedra

[Schubert, Carsten [JRDUS]]

Hi Timo,

I think you may have to switch to a different drawing primitive like TRIANGLES 
or TRIANGLE_STRIP. Since these are closed objects I assume that the enclosing 
area  should be fillable with a color of choice. Unfortunately I have not 
actually had a chance to play with these primitives, so I can't provide any 
docs. Check out \PyMOL\PyMOL\examples\devel\cgo08.py and/or cgo07.py for 
examples of TRIANGLE_STRIPS.

Hi PyMOL users,

thank you for your help. I tried to apply Carsten's suggestions using the 
LINE_STRIP approach. This is what I tested:
from pymol.cgo import *# get constants
from pymol import cmd

obj = [
LINEWIDTH, 50,
BEGIN, LINE_STRIP,
COLOR, 255, 0, 0,

   ]

cmd.load_cgo(obj,'cgo01')
where four atoms make up a square. This snippet creates - when called by "run 
" - four lines between these coordinates I got by using "print 
cmd.get_model('', 1).get_coord_list()". How can I have the the 
area between those four points filled with a colour of my choice and have it be 
partly transparent? The next step would be to create polyhedra with 
corresponding surfaces with atoms spanning a three dimensional object.

Hello PyMOL users,

I'm using PyMOL to create fancy images of Metal-Organic Framework structural 
units. They feature metal ions of different coordination spheres. The 
structural features of these units can be clarified by showing the 
corresponding coordination polyhedron (for example of the metal ions colour) 
with the coordinating atoms sitting on the polyhedron's corners. The polyhedron 
should be quite transparent. How can you draw such polyhedrons with PyMOL? The 
Google image search for
MOF-5 gives some examples of structures showing these coordination polyhedra.

Thank you very much!

You don't need a quadro with a 3 pin port to do stereo in linux
anymore, but you do need a "new" model quadro, e.g. a quadro 600. The
tradeoff is that you'll pay more for the 120hz monitors with the

Hi Max,

you are already pretty much spot on. Pymol stereo works under XP, Vista, W7 and 
as far as I know any Linux flavor,  as long as you purchase a compatible NVIDIA 
quadro card and Nvidia 3D kit. The only caveat is that under Linux you need to 
have a card which supports the external 3 pin stereo connector, you don't need 
that under any of the windows flavors. Check the Nivida website for compatible 
cards,  machines and monitors.

I'm sure you can also find some structural biology groups at Scripps who are 
already setup with this equipment.

Subject: Re: [PyMOL] Syntax for cmd.auto_arg.update

Hi Carsten,

Below is what I learned by reading codes and experimenting.
The relevant code is in parser.py, cmd.py and shortcut.py.
Please correct me if I am wrong.

+

When Pymol's console attempts to auto-complete the n-th argument
of command 'abc', it will look at cmd.auto_arg[n]['abc']
(n starts from 0). This is a list with three elements.

The first element is a lambda function which returns an Shortcut object.
Shortcut object wraps the list of candidate strings, given to
its constructor.

The second element is a string, which describs the argument.

The third element is a string, which will be added after autocompletion 
(postfix).

Example:

cmd.auto_arg[0]['test']=[lambda: cmd.Shortcut(['abc','bcd']), '1st 
argument', ', ']

will setup the autocompletion list of the first argument of command
'test'. When you type 'test ' and press TAB, PyMOL will show you
two candidates as:

  parser: matching 1st argument:
abc  bcd

If you type 'a' and press TAB again, PyMOL will complete it to
"test abc, ". Please note that ', ' is added.

Pre-defined lambdas:

In most cases, you just want to complete from object names or
setting lists. Then you don't have to write your own lambda
function. Just use cmd.object_sc for choosing from objects.

cmd.auto_arg[0]['test'] = [ cmd.object_sc, 'object', '']

Use cmd.selection_sc for setting names (like 'line_width'),
cmd.map_sc for maps, cmd,repres_sc for representations
(sticks, lines, etc).

By the way, update is another way to set values to Python's Dict.
auto_arg[0]['test'] = [some, thing, s] is same as
auto_arg[0].update([('test', [some, thing, s])]).

Best regards,

Takanori Nakane

you should be able to get the values from the tuple returned by

from my old notes (origin unknown...):

0-8 is the 3x3 rotation matrix
9-11 is the camera location (I think -- been a while...)
12-14 is the origin of rotation
15-16 are the clipping distances
and 17 is the orthoscopic flag.

Ritu,

 

just an idea. It could be that your PDB files contains CONECT records
for your ligands. Those bonds are defined by atom number or atom index I
believe. There could be a conflict between the different files you are
loading. Try stripping the CONECT records and see if that helps.

Hi,

Sorry about the lack of description in the previous post.
The chemicals show incorrect bond connections. Some of the rings go

possible to tell that the structure is not right. I didn't see much

Daniel, camera operations are done with move. To zoom out try 'move z, -10'

The above looks promising. What I'm missing, because of my lack of 
experience with Pymol, is how to move the camera away (i.e. zoom out) a 
defined distance. From the documentation of set_view it appears I should 
fiddle with the 15th and/or 16th floating point number, while keeping 
the other but 18 parameters is a bit dauting.

Re: [PyMOL] Retention of ANISO Records was How to merge molecules in Pymol?

Hi Jason,

Good to know. Could we then add this a feature request? I know Pymol is more a 
'consumer' and not a 'producer' but in certain instances 
this would be a nice feature to have.

Cheers,

Re: [PyMOL] Retention of ANISO Records was How to merge molecules in Pymol?

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Thanks to all who replied, 'create' did the trick of combining multiple 
objects/molecules into one object quite painless. I was not  thinking out of 
the box, been using create too long to slice and dice my molecules.

But it turns out that I have TLS-ANISO records in my original file I'd like to 
retain, the save command does not carry them over into the combined file, 
neither are CRYST/SCALE records retained. Any flags I need to set?

Cheers,

Carsten

[PyMOL] How to merge molecules in Pymol?

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Hi,

Is there an (un)documented way of merging multiple molecular objects in
Pymol into one molecule, which then can be written in a nicely formatted
PDB file? I cobbled something cludgy together with 'multisave' and a
couple read-sort-save cycles, but this is ugly and probably quite
fragile. An API function might be much more robust. Is there a provision
like this in ChemPy? I've already taken care of adjusting each molecule
to be unique with respect to chain IDs and IDs, so that would not be an
issue.

Any pointers would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Carsten

[PyMOL] New 16 char length restriction of object names in menu?

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Has the length of the object name entry in the right hand menu been
restricted to 16 characters in v1.4.x? Prior to 1.4.x there seemed to
have been no limit on the length of the entry. For instance
cmd.load("reallylongmapnamehere",
format="ccp4",object="reallylongmapnamehere") would truncate the display
of the object to "reallylongmapna". I suppose that would be fine for
some applications, but in my case I am distributing sessions, which
contain fairly long object names to be self-explanatory, so I am
dependent on this feature to work. Could this be reverted back to
unlimited or at least implement a setting controlling the length of the
entry?

Thanks

Carsten

Re: [PyMOL] Pymol 1.4.1 does not load PDBs from command line anymore

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Hi Alvin, 

thanks for the reply. Sorry, but I was not clear in describing the
problem. What I meant was that loading pdb files as arguments to pymol
does not seem to work anymore, i.e. 'shell_prompt #> pymol x.pdb y.pdb'
does not load x.pdb and y.pdb on startup. At least in 1.3 that mechanism
worked.

Cheers,

Carsten

Re: [PyMOL] openGL/GLEW problems when embedding a PyMOL instance in aPyQt4 widget

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Kasper, not sure if this will help you, but I think the GLEW stuff was
added recently in V1.4.x and it seems to be still somewhat experimental.
May be to get you started you could switch to v1.3r1 from the repository
and try to embedd that version. V1.3.x should not contain the new GL
stuff.

 

Good luck

 

Carsten

Subject: [PyMOL] openGL/GLEW problems when embedding a PyMOL instance in
aPyQt4 widget

 

Dear pymol user and developer community

I am trying to embed a pymol2.PyMOL instance in a PyQt4 widget.

I am using the latest beta v1.4.1 (although it still says v1.4.0 in
layer0/Version.h, I assume you just forgot to update?). I use ubuntu on
a macbook.

I got it to display a black window inside a PyQt4 app, and I was even
able to produce som ugly little white square H atoms one time, plus som
menus only half visible. Yes, kind of strange.

The problem is openGL related. When typing pymol -v at the command line,
it tells me that my openGL version is pre 2.0, which is not true. 

(Well, actually I wasn't entirely sure what precisely to look for in the
synaptic package manager, but libqt4-opengl is v4:4.7.0, python-opengl
is v3.0.1, python-qt4-gl is v4.7.4, freeglut3-dev is v2.6.0,
libglew1.5-dev is, well v1.5.2 glutg3-dev is 3.7-25)

Anyway, when I runt the following code (which may also contain the
source of the problem, I don't know):

class PymolQWidget(QGLWidget):

def __init__(self, parent=None):
QGLWidget.__init__(self, parent=parent)

self.pymolInstance = pymol2.PyMOL()
self.pymolInstance.start()
 
self.pymolInstance.cmd.load('/GUI/H2.pdb')'

self.pymolInstance.cmd.draw()
self.pymolInstance.cmd.show_as("sticks")

app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)
pymolWidget = PymolQWidget()
pymolWidget.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())

I get the following error message:

ShaderMgrInit-Error: Could not initialize GLEW:Missing GL version

which means that GLEW_OK!=err at line 145 in layer0/ShaderMgr.c, which
means the glew hasn't been initialized, which is as far as I was able to
get.

Needless to say, help would be greatly appreaciated.

Best,

Re: [PyMOL] slab mode fine-tuning

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Nadine,

Probably the command line is your best friend here. Look into the 'clip
near,x' and 'clip far,x' command, which allows to move the front and
back clipping planes in x increments. Positive values move towards you,
negative values of x away from you.
If that does not provide enough fine grained control you may want to
think about making a composite picture to 'fake' clipping planes per
object.

Cheers,

Carsten

Re: [PyMOL] Pymol 1.4 OpenGL issue with openSuSE 11.3 / 11.4

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Joachim,

I'm running into the same issue on a SuSe SLED10 box. The 32bit binary
(on the 64bit OS) displays the same behavior, i.e. only the MESA libs
were used. The 64bit version actually core dumps during startup. I
opened up a bug report with Schrodinger and they were already working on
it (I suppose the crash), but wouldn't hurt to reinforce the fact that
the 32bit version only uses the MESA libs (under SuSe?). Good that your
tried the more recent drivers, I was planning to do that but haven't got
around to do this yet.

Cheers,

Carsten

Re: [PyMOL] write a script from pse file

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Maia,

as far as I know a .pse is just a dump of the internal data structure of
Pymol. You can save the molecules contained in the session, but the
graphical representation and any modifications would need to be
recreated. 
Hopefully Jason proves me wrong ...

Carsten

Re: [PyMOL] labeling by a pseudoatom

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Roberto, 

partial answer to point 3. Adding a "_" before an object name hides it
from the panel.

For points 1 or 2. Could you please expand on your question? Is this for
interactive
or scripted mode? 
For scripted mode you could modify the coordinates of the pseudoatom to
be closer to the target atom or not? Otherwise look up the commands in
"Edit" mode. BTW in Edit mode you can actually mode regular labels with
the mouse as well (Edit Mode: CTRL Middle click)

Hope it helps somewhat

Carsten

Re: [PyMOL] Color scale changed in APBS?

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Hi Wataru, 

in addition to what Jason mentioned: Have you tried to look at the
potential mapped on the solvent accessible surface and display the
molecular surface? If you display the potential like this the colors
will be much more muted, on the other hand this is the setting you will
find most often displayed in the literature.
Another option is to have a look at the charge distribution of your
molecule in the actual PQR file. The potential distribution is dependent
on the charging algorithm used. I would recommend using/looking into
PDQ2PQR, which is available from the APBS website and compare this to
the homegrown charging algorithm from PyMol or GRASP for that matter.

Hope I did not muddle the water too much

Re: [PyMOL] Independent Zooming in Grid Mode

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Sean,

Just a thought, but the translate command looks like as if it should be 
possible to selectively modify the viewmatrix on a per object basis:
   "translate" translates the atomic coordinates of atoms in a
selection.  Alternatively, is modifies the matrix associated with
a particular object or object-state.

May be if you create two objects of interest, split states by object and then 
play around with the translate command you could achieve that effect.

Re: [PyMOL] colors and font size while ray tracing

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Hi Madhavi,

with regards to your first question:
I usually add text after rendering the stereo figures. That gives much
better control and has the advantage that label come out cleaner. Look
into Canvas, Photoshop or GIMP to do this. As an additional tip you can
control the depth of the labels this way as well. Lets say you want to
label Leu76 in the back of the figure, create one label, copy it to the
other panel and place the same part of the text on the same atom or
point of the residue you want to label. Group the labels and move them
to an unobstructive position. Repeat for the other labels. 
Spheres: Tough to tell, may be you inadvertently changed the depth queue
settings and the spheres got lighter. Did the the rest of the figure
change as well?

HTH

[PyMOL] 3D TVs experience with PyMOL?

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Hello List:

Has anyone been able to put together a workable system where they can
run PyMOL from a 3D HDTV using a regular workstation (Linux or Windoze)
and the NVIDIA 3D Kit for presentation purposes? I did some preliminary
research and while there is a wide range of 3D TVs out there I am not
sure about compatibility. For instance a quick look at the Samsung 3D
LCD TVs revealed that they don't even have a dual DVI interface, only 15
pin analog, doesn't look as if that is going to work...
I'll keep looking, but if anyone is willing to share their experience it
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Carsten

Re: [PyMOL] Force of pure white background when ray tracing with fog

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Hi Jason,

sorry but it looks as if I've sent you on a wild goose chase. I did some more 
research and recreated the actual images using some of the original scripts and 
they look fine. Turns out that the culprit is the RGB to CMYK conversion in 
Canvas, which I am using to make the panels for publication. Unfortunately the 
publisher only accepts CMYK figures, so it looks as if I need to tackle this 
from another angle.

Thanks for your help, glad Pymol is not at fault... (-:

Carsten

[PyMOL] Force of pure white background when ray tracing with fog

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Hi Pymolers,

I just noticed that Pymol produces an off-whitish background when ray
tracing a figure with fog enabled. The RGB values are (252,253,254) with
my standard settings and are devilishly hard to spot on a monitor, but
show up on some printers as a grayish background. Is there a setting or
a trick to get rid of this effect and force a pure white background
during rendering? I suppose rending with transparent background and
pasting in pure white box should do as a post-production workaround, but
that is not very convenient especially if the figures are already all
made.

Cheers,

Carsten

not directly applicable to your question, but may be it directs your

Re: [PyMOL] Stereo issues on Mac Pro with Quadro FX 4800

Chris,

I don't know much about MACs, but on Linux you can have a look at
/var/log/xorg.?.log or some similar log file. Take a look at the
equivalent log file. May be there is some clue as to why the emitter
won't work. Looks to me like a driver issue.

Good luck,

Re: [PyMOL] clipping single objects e.g. surfaces

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Sebastian,

individual clipping planes for objects has been a long standing request and I 
am not sure how far it is the queue. Jason may have some more in-depth insight. 
If you really want individual clipping planes for object you need to use PovRay 
and play around with bounding boxes. That approach is fairly advanced and 
requires some working knowledge of PovRay.
Otherwise I would recommend very carefully moving the clipping planes by hand 
(clip far, clip near ...) to get the view you want. Most of the times that 
works.

Re: [PyMOL] how to run a python script

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Vivek,

you need to put the script in the directory from where you launched
pymol. I.e if you launched pymol from your home directory with pymol,
you need to place the script there. 

Pymol knows some basic shell like commands, like cd, ls, and may be some
more. Using these should get you were you want to be.

[PyMOL] How to show a ribbon of a loop with alternate conformations

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Seemingly simple, but I can't figure it out: 
I modeled a loop in 2 alternate conformations and want to display both
of the conformations in a ribbon or cartoon. The selection "show ribbon,
prot and alt B" does not do the trick. The selection syntax must be
correct since "color red, prot and alt B; show lines prot and alt B"
works. I could show only the backbone atoms in a pinch, but that is not
really what I want. Hard to imagine that this is a limitation in PyMol
nobody noticed over the years.

Cheers

Re: [PyMOL] Charged Surface Calculation at different pHs?

Steve,

 

you need to use PDB2PQR to generate your pqr file, with choice of pH and
then run APBS on that file. I pulled reasonable defaults for APBS from
the APBS plugin tool. PDB2PQR is accessible through the APBS website.

Re: [PyMOL] stereo rotation lost with draw command

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Norbert,

Try something like this for a side-by-side stereo image:

turn y,3
draw
png left_image.png
turn y, -6
draw
png right_image.png
turn y,3


Caveat is that potential shadows may not be rendered correctly in stereo. 
That's why the angle option was implemented in ray.

I want to render a stereo image using the "draw" command instead of ray
tracing. Unfortunately, the stereo rotation is lost with the command and
the image is flat. If this is not a bug, is there a way to change this
behaviour?

[PyMOL] New Feature Ideas

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Jason,

here are my feature requests, only slightly biased by the fact that some
of them would be useful for my paper now (-:

1) arbitrary clipping planes bound to an object with an intelligent gui
to place them. Something akin to be found in Maestro or semi-transparent
CGO objects which can be manipulated freely in space and then used to
define clipping planes

2) Implementation of bounding planes in raytracing to avoid showing the
inside of clipped surfaces, raster3D has this option. I know one can
fumble around in Povray to get the same effect, but I'd rather spend my
time on something more productive.

3) If 2) is not an easy option, how about raster3D output in addition to
povray? Pymol can read raster3d, why not have the output as well. 

4) A better density wizard, let's just copy coot and be done with it.
Ability to dynamically bind density levels or some other properties to
the scroll-wheel for that matter.

5) Updated documentation. One thing that always irritated me as a paying
subscriber was the fact that the documentation never kept up with
development and the search capabilities were not that great. Don't get
me wrong the Wiki and BB are great resources, but I'd expect a bit more
of the docs. Also having the internal help functionality for functions
and the API up to date would be great. Some functions don't seem to have
a doc-string.

6) Integration/bundling of wxPython as an alternative to TCL/Tk??

7) Internal FFT routines to be able to read map-coefficients

8) A CGO library for commonly used objects like arrows and such

Cheers,

Carsten

[PyMOL] Preserving sec. structure in states for animation

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Hi,

I am trying to make a movie form a set of morphed pdb files. Currently
the individual files are loaded into the same object with increasing
states, all pdb files contain the SHEET and HELIX record created by
dssp.  The object is then displayed as a cartoon. When I loop over the
states I noticed that Pymol only seems to take secondary structure
information from the first pdb file into account. For instance I have a
helix which is split into 2 during the morph, but only displayed as one
helix during the animation, albeit a bit stretched. Loading the
individual files produces the right sec. structure. Any idea how I can
convince Pymol to update the cartoon representation with each frame? 

Cheers,

Carsten

Re: [PyMOL] label a stereo .png image in pymol

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Peter, 

 

here are some general considerations for stereo images

 

A.  The images should be ~63mm apart with respect to a point which you 
consider to be neutral, i.e. neither lies in front or in the back of the 
"zero-plane"

B.  The distance of the images also put restrictions on their size, which 
is something you need to consider. Usually it is 1 ½ columns in a journal, if I 
am not mistaken.

C.  For labels I use a program like photoshop or canvas, just because one 
has a wider selection of fonts and they produce antialiased renderings. I 
usually attach labels to landmarks, with which they share the same depth. For 
example if you want to label residue 234 and have the residue drawn in stick, 
you could place both upper left corners of the labels on the CA position, group 
them and move them out of the way so as they do not interfere with the rest of 
the graphic. Using this trick ensures that the labels appear in the correct 
depth.

 

HTH

Dirk,

 

you could try playing around with different transparency settings in
subsequent scenes to emulate the effect.

Dear Warren,

 

using PyMOL without any additional "plug-ins", like slerpy or eMovie, is
it possible to fade in or out a surface of, say, a ligand, between
scenes?

 

Best regards,

Re: [PyMOL] Smooth fading of surface in movie?

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

That would require execution of a python program within a specific
scene, which is not supported as far as I know. Scenes are intended to
be static representations of display states, for lack of a better word.
You would need to manually run the fade script before transitioning the
scene. Not sure if this is what you want. Looks as if you may be better
off plunging into movies if you really need the effect.

you want to dive into python.

Dear Carsten,

 

yes, thanks. However, for a smooth fading, that would require a lot of
scenes. Is there a simple python loop, that would create scenes with
smooth transparency fading-in from 0 to 1 and that I could use in my
pymol-scripts? Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with python, yet ...

Re: [PyMOL] object-specific Z-clipping

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Warren,

Can PyMol actually write raster3D objects? That's news to me. I did a
couple of the clipped, bounded surfaces in raster3d since it supports it
supports the option and was easier to implement than in PovRay. Again
the biggest drag is always to find the right orientation of the clipping
planes. If we can achieve this in PyMol then the rest is fairly easy.

Cheers,

Carsten

Re: [PyMOL] object-specific Z-clipping

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Hi Warren,

I would be interested to see the OpenGL version implemented, despite the
lack of raytracing support. In a pinch the draw command could just be
sufficient to produce a good picture.

As for the implementation in a raytracer context I second Tsjerk's and
Harry's thoughts on the subject. Probably some sort of PovRay based
implementation would help in the interim. What I find most challenging
with that approach is the fact that the placement of the clipping
objects is difficult to achieve in PovRay since it lacks the
interactivity of a graphics program. I.e. finding the right cut through
a protein surface when depicting a ligand in a cut-away surface is
tough. Although there are other ways to achieve this they require some
"cheating" or creative use of Photoshop/PowerPoint to phrase it
differently. 
I am thinking that if it would be possible to write out the orientation
of the clipping planes/slabs as PovRay objects, they could be used as
bounding objects in PovRay. Since the placement of the clipping planes
is easily achieved in Pymol this could be done interactively. All the
user has to do is to associate clipping plane(s) with a graphics object,
place the planes and write out the corresponding PovRay code of the
object and the planes. Of course the code of the clipping objects needs
to be separate from the other stuff, so expanding the "PovRay tuple"
into (matrix,clipping,data) parts would help. 
Getting it all together requires some knowledge of PovRay but examples
in the Wiki should help to get over the initial pain. 

Any thoughts on this approach?

Carsten

Re: [PyMOL] pymol and bonds to symmetry related molecules

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Christian,
 
as far as I know, PyMol is only able to draw bonds between atoms within the 
same object. The easiest way would be to combine the pdb files, probably a good 
idea to give the symm-mate a different chain or segid and then issue the bond 
command to draw the bond.

Re: [PyMOL] Showing only part of a surface around a ligand

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Wulf,

suppose you have this scenario:
Protein in chain A
Ligand in chain I

Then 

create b-site, byres chain A within 5 of chain I
show sticks, chain I
show surface, b-site

should get you close.

HTH

Carsten

BTW If you replace the "create" command with "select" your surface will be 
"scribed" i.e. with frizzled ends. If this is what you want then you should use 
select.

Subject: [PyMOL] Showing only part of a surface around a ligand


Hi all,

this question may be resolvable by sufficient RTFMing, but maybe there 
is someone out there to help me...

I am trying to generate a figure in which I want to show only a part of 
the protein surface around a ligand - pretty much like

preset --> ligand sites --> solid surface

I have already tried some amateur solutions like splitting the ligand 
into parts, placing waters to generate pseudo-ligand atoms and the like. 
Somewhat unsatisfying. I have also realized that I can click on every 
atom of the protein and do a show surface, but this will drive me insane 
sooner than later.

I guess it must be doable through some magic selection commands - if I 
could only see how the preset command works, I could probably work it 
out from there.

Can somebody please point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance,


Wulf

[PyMOL] Procedure for adding packages to pymol site-packages?

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Hi,

how would I go about adding a package to the $PYMOL_PATH/ext/.../site-packages

For most packages the mechanism is "python setup.py install". Would this work 
to run this from within pymol?

the MSEs are probably HETATM records instead of ATOM records. You can either

allows rendering of surfaces with HETATM records (I think, am a bit fuzzy on

Re: [PyMOL] PyMOL crashes under Vista Home Premium & Ubuntu 8.04 LTS

[Schubert, Carsten [PRDUS]]

Michael, play around with the hash_max value, which seem to partially control 
how much memory is used during rendering. You can also reduce the quality of 
the rendering Display->Quality, that should reduce memory requirements too. I 
know you don't want that, but do you really need max quality? Finally on Unix 
or even Windoze you can look at how much memory is consumed during rendering 
using top (on Unix) and the task manager on windows. That should give you some 
clue if you are really exceeding the physical memory or not. Finally you could 
split the rendering into smaller pieces, export to Povray, combine the files 
under a common header and render there, alternatively try if the "Draw" command 
gives you what you want, albeit not quite as fancy as the raytracer.

HTH

Subject: [PyMOL] PyMOL crashes under Vista Home Premium & Ubuntu 8.04
LTS


Hi,
I have a problem when trying to ray 750,750 a quite large ribosome file 
with maximum quality. Size of the relevant PyMOL v1.1 file is 100 MB (or 
31 MB after reducing objects I do not need for the figure production). 
PyMOL simply crashes under Windows Vista Home Premium as well as under 
Ubuntu Linux v8.04 LTS without error report. My dual OS system is a 
Samsung Aura Seven Notebook (Core2Duo @2.4 GHz each, 3 GB of RAM, NVIDIA 
GeForce 9200M GS graphics board with 256 MB of RAM, 12" TFT @1280x800 
resolution settings). I first thought the RAM under Vista is still 
insufficient (Vista alone takes 900 MB of the 3 GB of memory) but then  
I realized that this crash occurs as well under Linux. However, since 
both OS are 32 bit and therefore to my (limited) knowledge cannot handle 
more than 2 GB in a single task, RAM limitation might still be an issue 
to think about, right?
I have experienced (and occasionally reported) this type of serious 
crashes with PyMOL on a broad variety of machines over some years now - 
usually occurring when trying to render final files - but, sadly, none 
of these has ever been diagnosed and fixed properly. Maybe this time I 
am lucky and someone knows what to do?
Best regards,
Michael.
