[PyMOL] Help

2011-07-30 Thread Babban Mia
Dear users,

Is there some program to calculate the zeta potential or streaming
potential
of protein molecules (PDB files )

Is there some program to calculate the dipole moment of protein molecules
at
different PH values?


My last doubt is about creating polymers out a given PDB ?
I am studying the fibrils of some proteins and although the structure of
fibril is not know but through some analysis I have come to understand the
region in peptide which is leading to fibrillation.

I want to be able to create a PDB which has like 4/8/16 monomeric peptide
combined through some BETA PLEATED region(i.e the peptides will
join/aggregate around that region (beta region) of the peptide ) and all I
have is the PDB of the monomeric peptide.

Is there a possibility to make such peptides in Pymol or something ? Please
advise.


Thanks for your help.

Sincerely

[PyMOL] How to manage plugin dependencies

2011-07-30 Thread Osvaldo Martin
Hi Everyone,

I`m writing a Python plug-in that depends on a certain Python module. For
Linux users It would be easy to install this module because is available
through the repositories (I think Mac OsX has a repositories system too, but
I am not sure) . But for Windows this could be a little more complicated, 1)
They donĀ“t have a repository system and 2) Python is not installed by
default in Windows, hence if they install any Python module this module will
not be available to PyMol.

I think there are at least two options.

1) The easy one (for me): To distribute a README file with the
instructions to install the plugin in each platform and to make my plug-in
to check if the module if available, if not ask the user to install it.

2) The easy one (for the user): To distribute this module with my plug-in,
and create some installer to perform the installation in a more or less
automatic way.

Which option would be the better? It is option 2 to complicated to
implement?, it is worthwhile? which are the easiest way to install Python
modules on Windows and Mac OsX (and making them available to PyMol)?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,

Osvaldo.
