[PyMOL] problems with apbs/pqr

2009-08-05 Thread James Whittle
Hi all,

My apologies if this has been covered by this list before, but I  
couldn't find mention of it:

I'm trying to calculate an electrostatic surface for my protein. The  
APBS Tools plug-in crashes with the message:

WARNING: 502 atoms did not have formal charges assigned
WARNING: 1051 atoms did not have properties assigned

This happens whether I use a pqr file from PDB2PQR or the PyMol  
generated PQR.

I'm running OS X (Intel), Pymol version 1.2r0. I also tried it though  
on a linux machine, and got the same error. This plug-in works fine  
with several other coordinate files. I tried removing the chain ids  
from the pdb file, but that did not help.

Can anyone offer any advice on this?

James,

It sounds like there mayy be something other than canonical amino acids in your 
structure which might need to be removed prior to performing a calculation.  
These may be alternate conformations of amino acid side chains, ligands, or 
other unrecognized groups which cannot be processed for APBS.

Cheers,
Warren

Whoops! I accidentally replied only to James, rather than to the whole list.
PyMOL has some trouble with assigning charges. PDB2PQR handles it, but
manages to generate a bad PQR (missing the space between some columns with
leading minus signs, e.g. -100.2345-100.2345). Fixing the PQR file by hand
fixes the problem.

2009-08-05 Thread James Whittle

Thanks, Michael.

One further note- this problem can occur even with only a standard  
protein (no alternate conformations, ligands, etc.). The solution is  
simple: just replace all '-' characters with ' -'.
