No, as made clear in my previous response to Blaine: "The duplicated model
was generated with following DSSR Pro commands:"

 The duplicated model was generated with following DSSR Pro commands:

 ```
 x3dna-dssr tasks -i=model.pdb --frame-pair=last -o=model1-ref-last.pdb

 x3dna-dssr fiber --seq=GG --rna-ds -o=conn.pdb
 x3dna-dssr tasks -i=conn.pdb --frame-pair=first --remove-pair
 -o=ref-conn.pdb

 x3dna-dssr tasks --merge-file='model1-ref-last.pdb ref-conn.pdb'
 -o=temp1.pdb

 x3dna-dssr tasks -i=temp1.pdb --frame-pair=last --remove-pair
 -o=temp2.pdb
 x3dna-dssr tasks -i=model.pdb --frame-pair=first -o=model1-ref-first.pdb

 x3dna-dssr tasks --merge-file='temp2.pdb model1-ref-first.pdb'
 -o=duplicate-model.pdb
 ```

 It takes seconds to run. Moreover, by replacing `--seq=GG` with
 `--seq=GA10G` for example, one can easily get a linker with 10 adenines.
 The 'GG` is just a space-holder, and can be replaced with any other bases.
 The linker sequence could be any bases: eg. A5T3G6, AAATTGG, etc. Users who
 want to know more about DSSR can watch the overview video
 http://docs.x3dna.org/dssr-overview/ (20m).

 I noticed the phenomenon but I really do not know why. I used 'as
 lines' in PyMOL to verify the duplicated model.

Hi Xiang-Jun,

Sorry to bother. I meant if I can do the same thing you have done with DSSR
pro with free version of x3dna-dssr, as I am getting some error messages:

x3dna-dssr -i=model.pdb --frame-pair=last -o=model1-ref-last.pdb
Processing file 'model.pdb'
total number of nucleotides: 26
[e] no matched residue for option --frame

Thanks for your help.

Best,
Amir

Hello Dr. Xiang-Jun Lu,

Thanks a lot for your help. The model you have duplicated is exactly what I
am looking for (checked it with VMD). Unfortunately I do not have access to
DSSR-Pro. Is there any way that I can reproduce your procedure with
x3dna-dssr?
I need to create different numbers of duplicates (2,4,6,5,8) for different
systems and this will be very helpful.

Thanks in advance.

The duplicated model was generated with following DSSR Pro commands:

```
x3dna-dssr tasks -i=model.pdb --frame-pair=last -o=model1-ref-last.pdb

x3dna-dssr fiber --seq=GG --rna-ds -o=conn.pdb
x3dna-dssr tasks -i=conn.pdb --frame-pair=first --remove-pair
-o=ref-conn.pdb

x3dna-dssr tasks --merge-file='model1-ref-last.pdb ref-conn.pdb'
-o=temp1.pdb

x3dna-dssr tasks -i=temp1.pdb --frame-pair=last --remove-pair -o=temp2.pdb
x3dna-dssr tasks -i=model.pdb --frame-pair=first -o=model1-ref-first.pdb

x3dna-dssr tasks --merge-file='temp2.pdb model1-ref-first.pdb'
-o=duplicate-model.pdb
```

It takes seconds to run. Moreover, by replacing `--seq=GG` with
`--seq=GA10G` for example, one can easily get a linker with 10 adenines.
The 'GG` is just a space-holder, and can be replaced with any other bases.

Please share the commands that you used with DSSR to generate the duplicated

PyMOL does not generate the cartoon representation for the backbones of your

Hi Amir,

No, not automatically. Your RNA is very distorted from
the standard A-form. I doubt any modeling program
can accurately extend such a distorted helix. Maybe
someone else will prove me wrong.


DSSR was used to create the attached 26-base-pair (bp) long RNA by duplicating 
the initial 13-bp model. I'm not sure whether this is the outcome Amir was 
hoping for.

Best regards,

Xiang-Jun

 Your RNA does not have the expected
doughnut cross-section of the A-form when
viewed down the helical axis.

Your model has triclinic unit cell dimensions on the first line of the 
coordinate file.
Is it from a crystal structure? If it is, it might be stacked
end-on-end in the crystal lattice. You could generate its
symmetry mate and save its coordinates.
However, the cryst card in your file is corrupted, and
PyMOL cannot use it to generate symmetry mates.

You can align the terminal base pairs manually through a
series of commands. If you try by dragging one copy
relative to another, you will wind up pulling out all of your
hair. The commands and patience will keep you out  of the mad house.

load model_.pdb
orient
# align along the x-axis
copy model2, model_
translate [38,0,0], model2
rotate x, -45, model2

Issue a series of subsequent translate, rotate, and orient commands as needed.
Use smaller increments like 1 or 2 angstroms and 5 or 10 degrees.
The angle between the terminal base pairs should be about 33 degrees.
With patience, you can do this in less than an hour.

However, I am not sure how relevant the duplicated structure will be given
the distortions in model_.pdb.

Blaine

Re: [PyMOL] [EXTERNAL] create a 26 bp RNA from a 13 bp system

2021-11-10 Thread amirhossein taghavi
Hello Prof. Blaine,

Thanks a lot for the detailed explanation. The model is out of MD
simulations with the box information.
I will try the workflow you suggested.
I very much appreciate your help.

Best regards,
Amir

Re: [PyMOL] [EXTERNAL] create a 26 bp RNA from a 13 bp system

2021-11-10 Thread Mooers, Blaine H.M. (HSC)
Hi Amir,

No, not automatically. Your RNA is very distorted from 
the standard A-form. I doubt any modeling program 
can accurately extend such a distorted helix. Maybe
someone else will prove me wrong.

Your RNA does not have the expected
doughnut cross-section of the A-form when 
viewed down the helical axis. 

Your model has triclinic unit cell dimensions on the first line of the 
coordinate file.
Is it from a crystal structure? If it is, it might be stacked 
end-on-end in the crystal lattice. You could generate its
symmetry mate and save its coordinates. 
However, the cryst card in your file is corrupted, and 
PyMOL cannot use it to generate symmetry mates.

You can align the terminal base pairs manually through a
series of commands. If you try by dragging one copy 
relative to another, you will wind up pulling out all of your
hair. The commands and patience will keep you out  of the mad house.

load model_.pdb
orient
# align along the x-axis
copy model2, model_
translate [38,0,0], model2
rotate x, -45, model2

Issue a series of subsequent translate, rotate, and orient commands as needed.
Use smaller increments like 1 or 2 angstroms and 5 or 10 degrees.
The angle between the terminal base pairs should be about 33 degrees.
With patience, you can do this in less than an hour. 

However, I am not sure how relevant the duplicated structure will be given
the distortions in model_.pdb.

Best regards,

Blaine

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [PyMOL] create a 26 bp RNA from a 13 bp system

Hello,

I have an RNA duplex with 13 base-pairs (attached). Is it possible to duplicate 
this system and then fuse the two molecules to create a 26 base-pair long 
system using the pymol.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Amir
