Re: [PyMOL] Visualisation of protein-ligand interactions using cmd

[Enrico M. <jms...@gm...>]

Thank you very much Jared!
Could you tell me if you have  some cool present for the surface
representations ?

For example I am using the following script to visualize the surface
of the protein around the ligand binding site:
cmd.show('surface', 'polymer within 15 of complex* and not polymer')
cmd.set('surface_color','marine','polymer')
cmd.set('transparency', '0.4')
cmd.hide('cartoon', 'all')
cmd.png('image.png',width=${image},height=${image},dpi=50,ray=1)

It produces a good looking image but the surface looks monotone. How
could I improve its representation using some preset??
Cheers,
Enrico

[PyMOL] Visualisation of protein-ligand interactions using cmd

[Enrico M. <jms...@gm...>]

Dear Pymol Users!
Is it possible to visualize protein-ligand interactions (which
normally is achieved in GUI via a - > present -> ligand sites
using some combination of the pymol commands, which could be scripted
using cmd. syntax ?
I've found this explanation
https://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Displaying_Biochemical_Properties#Hydrogen_bonds_and_Polar_Contacts
but did not understand quite well how it works.
I would be grateful for the example of the commands which show the
polar contacts (I am mostly interested in hydrogen bonds) in my pymol
session without calling each time the GUI menu.
Many thanks in advance!

[PyMOL] visualisation of ligand conformations predicted in Docking

[Enrico M. <jms...@gm...>]

Dear Pymol Users!
I am working on the visualization of the ligand binding poses
predicted by protein-ligand docking. Having 88 solutions I split these
states into different states and then set transparency=0.8 to each of
them, in order to visualize them as the "cloud" of the conformational
space of the ligand predicted in docking. I also selected the best
docking pose (always the first model) and colored it in Red without
the transparency. The problem is that, during the visualization, on
the  png graph, the best docking pose looks to be on the second plane
compared to others (transparent) poses. How could I always move this
model on the first plane compared to other aligned ligand poses?
P.S. I tried to enclose the PNG to my message but it seems that it
could not pass the moderator filter ..

Re: [PyMOL] surface representation of the protein-ligand interactions

[Enrico M. <jms...@gm...>]

Right, thank you, Blaine!
It works very well now! Actually there was a problem in the selection
from my part so..
I will play with the surfaces a little bit and then will update this
topic with my questions :-)
Cheers,
Enrico

Re: [PyMOL] surface representation of the protein-ligand interactions

[Mooers, B. H.M. (HSC) <Bla...@ou...>]

Hi Enrico, 

You do not need the first line of your script.

This one-liner worked for me in the terminal.

pymol -c -d "cmd.fetch('3nd3');cmd.show('surface');cmd.set('transparency','0.5');cmd.save('surf.pse');cmd.png('surf.png')"

You might test reversing the order of the cmd.png() and cmd.save() commands.

Best regards,

Blaine

Hi Enrico,

This is beyond my understanding, try and run this bash script without making the surface transparent (to figure out if the issue comes from the transparency)

Also try the rebuild command before saving the image: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__pymolwiki.org_index.php_Rebuild&d=DwIGaQ&c=qKdtBuuu6dQK9MsRUVJ2DPXW6oayO8fu4TfEHS8sGNk&r=rxarJ7aLyHGI62pje1gd6hPxYn9Xv-2lWNWh_1Owonw&m=LJPkRnhTZf8Utg8JOTi736pL_UGe7aSsJfSdAISU1O6habH3BmWqqUuvTrUfXWMh&s=QM8ZtM6vxjrnYB0Cs6BSV-M8WweuPuuTS1xLMGYQdKU&e=

Re: [PyMOL] surface representation of the protein-ligand interactions

[Enrico M. <jms...@gm...>]

Thank you very much,Ali!
just one question: when I do the surface calculations using bash
script operating with the command lines of the pymol it produces
correctly pse session with the surfaces. BUT if I save an image using
png, the surface is totally absent. Here are my commands directly from
the shell script:

$pymol -c -d "
from pymol import cmd
cmd.load('${results}/${output}_${lig_name}_${receptor}_rep${i}.pdb')
cmd.show( 'surface', '${output}* and polymer within 15 of ${output}*
and not polymer' )
cmd.set( 'transparency', '0.5' )
cmd.save('${vizu}/${output}_${lig_name}_rep${i}.pse')
cmd.png('${vizu}/${output}_${lig_name}_rep${i}.png',width=${image},height=${image},dpi=50,ray=0)
"
As the result of this workflow,  the surface is present in the PSE
file but not in the png image. Otherwise when I save png directly from
the pymol's GUI the surface is well captured on the png as well. What
should I include in my script ?

Re: [PyMOL] surface representation of the protein-ligand interactions

[Ali S. K. <aku...@un...>]

Hi Enrico, 

You can carve the protein surface around the ligand, i.e. show only the surface behind the ligand, see this guide: https://pymol.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=figure:carving_surfaces

You can also try and made the surface more transparent, but this doesn't always give the best results, see: https://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Transparency, i.e.:

set transparency, 0.5

It would help to see an image of what you are working with atm

Dear Pymol users!
Working on the vizualisation of the protein-ligand interactions I

Re: [PyMOL] how to create multi-model pdb for protein-ligand complex?

[Enrico M. <jms...@gm...>]

In the case of
cmd.save("together.pdb", "all", "0", "pdb")
it saves everything in one pdb when the protein is present only in the
first model, while I need to obtain its representation in all models

[PyMOL] how to create multi-model pdb for protein-ligand complex?

[Enrico M. <jms...@gm...>]

Dear Autodock Users!
I am dealing with the structural analysis of the protein-ligand
interactions observed in the protein-ligand docking using VINA.
Basically operating with the outputs I have two different pdb files:
1) for docking receptor (1 protein model) as well as for 2) docking
sollutions (100 solutions). So I use pymol to open the both filles and
visualize them

pymol sollutions.pdb receptor.pdb

May you suggest me some pymol command to merge the both in the pymol
to. create multi-model PDB consisted of the both receptor and ligand
poses in order then I could perform some structural analysis of this
combined complex?
Many thanks in advance
Enrico

[PyMOL] Questions_InterfaceResidues

[arooma m. <aro...@gm...>]

Could you please post it on my behalf

Hi Everyone

I have few basic questions, i would really appreciate if any one could answer

 In interfaceResidue script,

def interfaceResidues(cmpx, cA='c. A', cB='c. B', cutoff=1.0,
selName="interface"):

dASA cutoff is *1.0*.

*How to decide this cutoff value? In a few examples I have noticed it
is 0.75 and 2.5. *

*I wonder if residues of the two chains (A and B)  should be at a
certain distance from each other like 6 or 8 Angstroms?  I think I am
confusing dASA with distance between atoms of the residues.*

my second question is

*Is it possible to get the values dASA of the complex and individual
chains (calculated through the script below) printed into any txt or
excel sheet? *

# get the area of the complete complex
	cmd.get_area(tempC, load_b=1)
	# copy the areas from the loaded b to the q, field.
	cmd.alter(tempC, 'q=b')

	# extract the two chains and calc. the new area
	# note: the q fields are copied to the new objects
	# chA and chB
	cmd.extract(chA, tempC + " and (" + cA + ")")
	cmd.extract(chB, tempC + " and (" + cB + ")")
	cmd.get_area(chA, load_b=1)
	cmd.get_area(chB, load_b=1)

My third question is in PyMol GUI, by using Action--preset--protein
interface, are we executing the same ResidueInterface script . If yes,
then why is there a difference in results?

If No, what is the difference in both these functions

I would really appreciate if you please answer these questions

Thank you

Re: [PyMOL] Structure alignment -- general question

[Ali S. K. <aku...@un...>]

Hi George,

You can do pairwise alignments, i.e. align 3 of the structures to one structure.

You can also use the "extra_fit" method (https://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Extra_fit), i.e:

extra_fit name CA, "object", super

Replace object with the structure you want the other 3 to align to, this uses the "super" alignment method but you can also use "align", "cealign", "fit", etc. Depending on what gives the best results. Just a note, this will align all PyMOL objects to your selected object, you can make sub selections as needed.

Cheers,

Ali

[PyMOL] Structure alignment -- general question

[George T. <gtz...@me...>]

I’m dealing with 4 heterogeneous structures belonging to the same fold. I’d like to compare some conserved structural features and for this purpose it would be useful that the structures are aligned and then visualised in a grid.

I understand that the align command works for 2 structures only. Is there another way achieve what I described above.

Looking forward to any suggestions

Many thanks in advance and all the best for 2022

[PyMOL] Analysis of protein-ligand interactions

[Enrico M. <jms...@gm...>]

Dear Pymol users!
I am performing analysis of protein-ligand interactions for the ligand
pose established in protein-docking and comparing it with the pattern
observed in the X-ray structure for the same complex.
Is it possible to use some Pymol command in the pymol's command line
to save (in the text log) all of the non-bonded interactions
established between ligand and all of the surrounded groups of the
receptor for two different selections:
(1) between the conformation used for docking and the best docking pose
(2) between the X-ray structure + it's (native) ligand pose

assuming that ((1): two different objects for receptor.pdb and the
ensemble of docking conformations) and ((2): one object consisting of
ligand and receptor together) are loaded in Pymol.
Many thanks in advance!
Cheers
Enrico

[PyMOL] Unable to run pymol from Linux command line

[Max L. <ma...@ya...>]

Hi, 

I installed pymol on Ubuntu 20.04 on WSL (Windows 10) using:

sudo apt-get install -y pymol

However, when I run pymol on the command line, I get this error:

<string>:1: DeprecationWarning: the imp module is deprecated in favour of importlib; see the module's documentation for alternative uses
qt.qpa.xcb: could not connect to display
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
Available platform plugins are: eglfs, linuxfb, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc, xcb.
Aborted

What should I do to get pymol to work?  

Best regards, 
Max

[PyMOL] Distorted 3-10 helix

[Bonsor, D. (NIH/N. [C] <dan...@ni...>]

Dear All,

My latest structure has several 3-10 helices present, however, a few of them in cartoon form shows the starting residue of the helix to be distorted/twisted.

The structure is 2.2Ang and I can clearly see the position of the amide bond and the direction of carbonyl, but I cannot stop the twisting of the cartoon.

I have tried altering that residue ss to a loop which “works” (as in the problem goes away) but I really wish to show the full helix. I have also run DSSPtoPDB and force it not to recognize the 3-10 helices as helices but in cartoon form you can see they are helices.

Do anyone have suggestions or a way to force it to be a helix?

Hi Ambbar,

To select sequence "ACDEF", you can do:

select mysele, pepseq ACDEF
