2003-06-04 Thread Richard Gillilan
lso be sure to check out Richard Gillilan MacCHESS, Cornell This method of generating stereo images is correct, but also leads to quite a bit of vertical parallax (the so-called "toe-in" projection) - this is why many stereoscopic images are hard to view properly (usually, edges

[PyMOL] surfaces, VDW and probe radii

2006-08-24 Thread Richard Gillilan
I'm trying to create a smooth surface representation of a set of 6.5A diameter spheres read in as CA atoms. Is there a way to override PyMol's assignment of atomic radii? Also, if I were using a conventional molecular surface algorithm I would turn up the "probe" radius so that the surface

[PyMOL] dock one protein into another?

I'm having trouble figuring out how to use the edit mode in PyMol. I would like to dock an entire protein (a homodimer along with water) into another structure by rotating and translating manually. Is there a way to move multiple molecules like this as a group? Thanks Richard Gil

[PyMOL] surfaces for molecules with non-standard VDW's

2007-05-22 Thread Richard Gillilan
In the past I have used PyMol pretty successfully to visualize low- resolution x-ray solution scattering results in which each "atom" in a pdb file is actually a large sphere (say 4-6 Angstroms) representing some density. I would use >alter , vdw = 6.0 to set the sphere sizes appropriate
