Hi Suda,
Do you mean the number of residues in helix c.q. sheet or the number
of helices and the number of sheets? The former is pretty easy. You
can do
select ss s
select ss h
to get the numbers for sheet and helices, respectively. To use the
numbers in a script, use cmd.select('ss s') and cmd.select('ss h')
instead.
The other way is not as easy. You'll have to get the sequence:
cmd.dss()
ss = "".join([i.ss for i in cmd.get('n. ca').atom])
and then parse the sequence for stretches of identical types. In the
case of helices, that will give you the answer, but sheets are
typically composed of multiple strands, which will require additional
effort.
Hope it helps,
Tsjerk
