Grant This is typically done by calculating the inertia tensor based on any coordinates you want to consider (usually CA,C,N) [x.x x.y x.z] [x.y y.y y.z] [x.z y.z z.z] Then "diagonalize" this using a standard eigen routing - many around, sort the eigen vectors by eigen value and the longest scal

[ccp4bb] Vector approximation of B-strands

2014-02-03 Thread GRANT MILLS
Dear all, I'm wanting to simplify B-strands in a PDB and my idea was to create a vector which approximates the alpha carbons through the strand. I was thinking I could use some kind of least squares regression but it gets very complicated when extended into the 3rd dimension. Is there a simpler
