Hi Bishwa,
what you want is to label one representative atom per secondary
structure element. So figure out chain and residue number of those
atoms, and label each of them individually:
PyMOL> label A/42/CA, "beta1"
PyMOL> label A/117/CA, "alpha1"
PyMOL> label A/147/CA, "alpha2"
For changing lab
Hi Bishwa,
can you be more precise what you mean by "label"? If the secondary
structure is defined in the header of your PDB file, PyMOL can show
cartoon representation, show text labels on C-alpha atoms and color by
secondary structure.
PyMOL> as cartoon
PyMOL> label name CA, ss
PyMOL> color red
Hi All,
I am using Pymol to make figures for my publication. I am not sure if there has
been a discussion earlier but I would like to know how we can label the
secondary structures (helices and strands) using Pymol. I have them defined in
my header file using DSSP.
Thank you in advance.
