Dear PyMol users! As I've understood there are no posible ways to represent H-bonds in proteins in explicit manner. So I'm looking for possible way to do it via some plugin or another way. In particular I need 1) to visualize H-bonds in some structural motifs like coiled coil wich are dimers of alpha helices ( so I'd like to see H-bonds beetwen separate alpha helices ) 2) to visualize H-bonds in spicified SS structure ( e.g during formation of the alpha helices)- so I'd like to see H-bonds beetwen amide and Carboxy groups in specified amino acid sequence. 3) Finally I'd like to check H-bond in protein-ligand complex ( beetwenn specified ligand groups as well as some amino acid residues of the ligand binding pocket) Thanks, James |

Hi James, > As I've understood there are no posible ways to represent H-bonds in > proteins in explicit manner. So I'm looking for possible way to do it > via some plugin or another way. PyMOL can find polar contacts and represent them as dashed lines. You don't need any extra plugin. http://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Displaying_Biochemical_Properties#Hydrogen_bonds_and_Polar_Contacts It's the "distance" command with mode=2 that does the job. http://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Distance There are various dash_* settings that control the appearance of the dashed lines: http://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Dash_Length http://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Dash_color (and many others...) > In particular I need > 1) to visualize H-bonds in some structural motifs like coiled coil wich > are dimers of alpha helices ( so I'd like to see H-bonds beetwen > separate alpha helices ) Try this (lets say helix 1 is resi 1-100 and helix 2 is resi 101-200): # add hydrogens (if not already present) h_add donors # detect polar contacts distance hb_coiled_coil, resi 1-100, resi 101-200, mode=2 > 2) to visualize H-bonds in spicified SS structure ( e.g during formation > of the alpha helices)- so I'd like to see H-bonds beetwen amide and > Carboxy groups in specified amino acid sequence. just like example 1, but with other selections: distance hb_backbone, name O, name N, mode=2 > 3) Finally I'd like to check H-bond in protein-ligand complex ( beetwenn > specified ligand groups as well as some amino acid residues of the > ligand binding pocket) just like before, but with ligand as selection 1 and receptor as selection 2.

Thomas, thank you for so detailed explanation. This way works good but I'd like to ask you about possibe Hbonds in the protein chain. As I remember for protein physics courses the H atom is always donor for only ONE H-bond ( and O or N atoms could be akceptors for 1 or 2 Hbonds) But In my case there are some cases where H atom ( white ) is donor for the 2 Hbonds. By the way I found the same on the picture in WIKI too. How it could be explaned ? James |

While the single acceptor H-bond is most common, bifurcated (or three-centred) H-bods are not uncommon in crystal structures, as described starting page 22 of GA Jeffrey's book: http://www.amazon.com/Introduction-Hydrogen-Bonding-Physical-Chemistry/dp/0195095499/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1322331503&sr=8-2 James Starlight wrote: > Thomas, thank you for so detailed explanation. > > This way works good but I'd like to ask you about possibe Hbonds in the protein chain. > > As I remember for protein physics courses the H atom is always donor for only ONE H-bond ( > and O or N atoms could be akceptors for 1 or 2 Hbonds) > > But In my case there are some cases where H atom ( white ) is donor for the 2 Hbonds.

Another question also linked with the non-covalent interaction. In particular I wounder to know how i Could represent all hydrophobic ( Ley Ile Val etc) sidechains in my proteins in most trivial manner?

Hi James, most trivial manner: as cartoon show sticks, resn LEU+ILE+VAL set cartoon_side_chain_helper and eventually something like this: show spheres, resn LEU+ILE+VAL and not name N+O+C set sphere_transparency, 0.5 Cheers, Thomas On 11/28/2011 02:58 PM, James Starlight wrote: > Another question also linked with the non-covalent interaction. > > In particular I wounder to know how i Could represent all hydrophobic ( > Ley Ile Val etc) sidechains in my proteins in most trivial manner?

Thanks, Thomas, Jason both of the methods are useable :) By the way I've forced with the problem of the representation of the active sites of different enzymes. I need to view all my protein as the cartoons and the ligand as the shpere in the ligand binding pocket. Besides I need to mark residues wich are contact with the ligand ( E.g I want to mark it as the lines and with the individual colour ). Finally I want to represent Hbonds between active site residues and the ligand. I've done this manually but its very long if I want to study 20-30 different enzymes during evening :) Also I've found such sollution wich could do all that i want http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/PLoS#Case_2:_Ligand-binding_sites_.28.E2.89.A5_novice.2Fintermediate.29 but this way also I need to rewrite script for specified enzyme ( e.g mark the active site residues and the distances for Hbonds etc ) Is there any semi-avtomated way to find ligand binding pocket and do all such things ?

Thanks Jason. It works quite well in case of not very compliated ligands ( e.g bonds beetween aa-tRNA and the aa-tRNA syntase were correct ) but in the sugar-bound enzyme there were some mistakes in representation of the H-bonds netween water/ligand/active center ( some water also partisipate in the ligand binding but in case where water and some residues of the active sites were positioned iclosely the bonds were incorect ). So a I understood I can fix this mistakes only manually ? By the way, on what assumptions helix elements of my proteins were colored after representation of the ligand binding with the cartoons ? Finally how I could represent ionic contacts in the ion-binding proteins ? E.g now I'm studing calmodulin wich has Ef-hand Ca-binding motifs. I've tried to represent bonds beetwen some polar residues of the active site with the ligand but failed :( Thanks again, James 2011/11/29 Jason Vertrees <jas...@sc...> > James, > > > Is there any semi-avtomated way to find ligand binding pocket and do all > > such things ? > > For your given object, click A > preset > ligands sites > cartoon.

Dear all :) I want to find Hbonds beetween different helices in the membrane receptor ( H bonds beetween sidechains only) I know possible way to do it wihin selection if I defined different helixes but is there any way to find almost all Hbonds between polar sidecains groups ? Could I use find-> polar contact-> sidechain only for this purpose ?
