[PyMOL] How to superimpose two ligands?

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 454-5900

Hi Everyone,

Could someone tell me how to perform superimposition of two or more ligands from different PDBs?

Thanks in advance.

Feng.

We discussed this a bit off-list, and it looks like this was the answer:

The potentials are assigned to points in space.  That's why the
isosurfaces don't change, and also why the surface coloring changes
when you change the shape of the surface.

Hope that helps anyone else who might have this question,

Hi William

You can do it, or something that's as close to a cone as you could wish
for, by using a triangle fan. The apex of the fan is the top of the cone
and then you just add points around the base of the cone at whatever
granularity you like.

That would take some programming though, but it's not too difficult if you
know some Python, as the CGO interface is very simple.  I wrote a pymol
plugin to do something similar: it takes an input specification file,
parses it, and draws many CGO objects as a result. It works just fine.
Making the resulting cones smoothly colored or transparent would be more,
and harder, work though.  Without doing that, your cones may not play
nicely with the rest of the stuff drawn by pymol (which in my case is
nothing at all :-)).

Ni Hao Feng,

First of all, please do not include an complete daily digest in a
question (or reply) on this or any user list. If required, cut out
only that part which connects to your question or reply.

Then, in addition to Bobs comments, you can also use the terminal or a
script, using the command:

set sphere_scale, 0.3 (or another value)

This will do what it says and scale your atoms sphere radius with the
factor given. Another possibility is to assign a different atomic
radius to your atom:

alter e. s, vdw=newradius_float_argument

maybe like:

alter e. s, vdw=vdw*0.9

Note that you may have to "rebuild" your scene, if you were already
using a sphere representation.

Best,

Tsjerk

Hi William,

Maybe the attached python script will be of some use. It contains a
function (and some helper functions) to draw a CGO arrow in PyMOL. It
contains code for drawing a cone for the head of the arrow.

Hope it helps,

Tsjerk

I needed to have a measurement of the "actual" physical long dimension of a 
protein model to compare with x-ray scattering data.  I activated the surface 
mesh feature and at the extreme ends of the longest axis, right at the 
surface boundary, created a carbon atom at each position, then simply used 
the distance measurement wizard to measure the distance between the too 
points.

Is their any way to get the size in pixels of the sequence view like
their is of the internal gui, or the size in pixels of the space
actually used for drawing? I know that glGetDouble(GL_VIEWPORT) but
this doesn't take into account the internal gui or the sequence view.
I can find a way to get the size of the internal gui but not the
sequence view.

thanks,

Aaron
