If you have PyMOL installed, you can paste the bash function below into your .bashrc file, enter 'source .bashrc', and then enter 'bu PDB-ID'. All that you have to remember a month from now is 'bu'.
Otherwise, you can replace the pymol command with one of the other commands that have been suggested and replace the filename stem with $1. bu() { echo "Write out the biological unit for a PDB file from PyMOL." if [ $# -lt 1 ]; then echo 1>&2 "$0: not enough arguments" echo "Supply the PDB-ID." echo "Example: bu 3nd4" return 2 elif [ $# -gt 1 ]; then echo 1>&2 "$0: too many arguments" echo "Supply the PDB-ID." echo "Example: bu 3nd4" fi pymol -c -d "fetch $1,type=pdb1;set all_states,on;save $1bu.pdb,state=0" } Best regards, Blaine Blaine Mooers, Ph.D. Associate Professor Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, College of Medicine University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center ________________________________________ From: CCP4 bulletin board [CCP4BB@JISCMAIL.AC.UK] on behalf of Marcin Wojdyr [woj...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, May 26, 2021 2:10 AM To: CCP4BB@JISCMAIL.AC.UK Subject: [EXTERNAL] Re: [ccp4bb] writing coordinates of full biomol into one (PDB) file another one: gemmi convert --assembly=N input.pdb output.pdb On Wed, 26 May 2021 at 07:30, Frank von Delft <frank.vonde...@cmd.ox.ac.uk> wrote: > > Thanks for the quick responses!
