Dear Faisal,

none of the secondary structure prediction programs are perfect
(although dssp is pretty good). This means you should always check the
predictions yourself, at least at the boundaries of helices and
beta-strands and then fine-tune the graphics programs.

Best,
Tim

Thanx to all

Your suggestions really worked and solved my problem.

Hi Faisal,

you could run dssp2pdb by James Stroud (
http://www.jamesstroud.com/software/dssp2pdb/ ) to convert dssp output into
PDB readable format as part of the header. When you open resultant PDB in
PyMOL, secondary structure as defined by dssp would be displayed.

OR

one could also define secondary structure in PyMOL manually (see at the end
of this link: http://pymol.sourceforge.net/newman/user/S0260cartoons.html)

HTH,
Partha

Re: [ccp4bb] visualizing G310 helices in PYMOL

2013-09-26 Thread Matthias Zebisch

Dear Faisal,

I usually assign in PYMOL the secondary structure generally obeying DSSP 
output.

You have to use the alter command. eg:
alter myprotein and resi 103:106, ss='H'

Bytheway, pymol swaps inside and outside color on left handed helices, 
wich you might also have.


Hope this helps,

Matthias

Dear all

Sorry for the off topic question.

My protein has few G310 helices. It is clearly visible through STRIDE 
or DSSP, but when i open the structure in PYMOL it didnt show it. 
Other visualization graphics like CHIMERA and VMD are  able to pick 
few of them but not all the G310 helices..For manuscript preparation i 
have drawn the topology diagram taking the output from STRIDE and DSSP 
while the overall 3D structure is from PYMOL..Will it be O.K to show 
some helices missing from the output of pymol while they are present 
in the toplogy diagrma ? or the reviewer will raise the issue? hope 
you are able to understand what i mean to say.
