Re: [ccp4bb] visualizing G310 helices in PYMOL
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 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.

Re: [ccp4bb] visualizing G310 helices in PYMOL
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 On Thu, Sep 26, 2013 at 4:02 PM, Faisal Tarique wrote: > > Dear all > > Sorry for the off topic question. > > My protein has few G310 helices.

Re: [ccp4bb] visualizing G310 helices in PYMOL
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.

[ccp4bb] visualizing G310 helices in PYMOL
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.
