The script format_bonds will automatically format bonds in amino acids.

Usage

[edit]
format_bonds [ selection [, bonds ]]

Examples

[edit]
import format_bonds

frag PHE
format_bonds

format_bonds bonds=2


Notes

[edit]
  • Remember to correctly configure plugin import (see: Git intro)
  • format_bonds will introduce delocalized bonds by default or when bonds is larger than 2.
  • Setting bonds=1 will simply disable valence display (globally!)
  • The selection argument is 'all' by default and can be used to restrict editing to selected residues.
  • Note that format_bonds will also format acidic residues, the C-terminus, arginine and nitro groups.
  • Tip: press the TAB key after entering format_bonds to get argument suggestions
