Re: [PyMOL] Access to pymol commands from the terminal
Hi Jared, many thanks for the suggestion! your method works perfect (i only slightly modified dir for input file) # dock each model to the ligand for pdb in $receptors/*.pdb; do filename=$(basename $pdb) M=${filename/.pdb/} echo Processing of ${M} is initiated... #remove water and ions; change EMD to TER grep -v ATOM.*\(WAT\|NA+\|Cl-\) $pdb | sed -e 's/^END/TER/g' ${dirr}/temp/${M}_clean.pdb #superimsoposition using pymol against reference pymol $ref ${dirr}/temp/${M}_clean.pdb -c -q -d super $M, $R and resi 2-280; save ./superimposed/${M}_aligned.pdb, $M ./superimposed/pymol_${M}.log cp $ref ./superimposed done two additional questions: 1) will it possible to use more flexibility in case of the selection of region for alignment in reference structure? super $M, $R and resi 2-280 For instance I'd like to select all residues which are part of the alpha helixes of the reference. how it should be done? 2) what advantages could give me tmalign method for the superimposition in comparison to super and ce programs? does the coordinates of the reference will not changed after alignment of each mobile on it (like fitting in case of super) ?

However, instead of using something like” PyMOL’s `super` command as you asked, you could actually use `super` in your shell session by launching PyMOL in command line mode http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Command_Line_Options. Of course, you would need to modify it according to your file naming scheme, but here’s a working example. ### #!/bin/bash REF=reference.pdb # grab some related pdb files to use and make one of them the reference # (obviously you won’t have to do this) i=0 for pdb in 1bbd 7fab 1dba 1plg 1nl0; do pymol -c -d fetch ${pdb}, mobile${i}, async=0; save mobile${i}.pdb i=$((i+1)) done mv mobile0.pdb $REF # align all the mobile files to a selection in the reference file i=1 for MOB in mobile*.pdb; do # strip the extensions R=$(echo $REF | sed 's/\.pdb$//') M=$(echo $MOB | sed 's/\.pdb$//') # superimpose and save aligned mobile coordinates pymol $REF $MOB -c -q -d super $M, $R and resi 1-110; save ${M}_aligned.pdb done pymol mobile*_aligned.pdb ### You could also use CEalign if you need something citable, just switch the order of the arguments to it: `cealign $R and resi 1-110, $M`. Hope that helps.

Re: [PyMOL] Molecular Visualisation in PyMol
Hi Jed, so this method is working of the ensemble of the pdb files taken from the MD simulation or NMR structure, isnt it? Could someone explain me step by step how to obtain such inputs for the PyMol (from the step when I've load my trajectory to the VMD).

Re: [PyMOL] Molecular Visualisation in PyMol
I should to specify that I ask this because normally VMD didn't produce multi-state pdb from the md trajectory so it seems I need to use some plugin to load *.dcd or *.trr James 2014-09-22 13:53 GMT+04:00 James Starlight jmsstarli...@gmail.com: Hi Jed, so this method is working of the ensemble of the pdb files taken from the MD simulation or NMR structure, isnt it?

Try `$R and resi 2-280 and ss h`. See http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Property_Selectors for more info. (That page comes up as the very first result for me on Google with “pymol select secondary structure” as the search term.) 2) what advantages could give me tmalign method for the superimposition in comparison to super and ce programs? does the coordinates of the reference will not changed after alignment of each mobile on it (like fitting in case of super) ? From the description here (http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/TMalign) that TMalign, like CEalign, can be useful for structures in the “twilight zone,” where sequence alignment by `align` or structural alignment by `super` may not provide a good fit. For any of the programs, though, only the mobile structures should move; the target/reference coordinates should always remain unchanged.
