Did you know... Pucker Type Python Script Download pucker.py Author(s) Sean M. Law License - This code has been put under version control in the project Pymol-script-repo DESCRIPTION pucker.py is a PyMol script that returns the sugar pucker information (phase, amplitude, pucker) for a given selection. This script uses its own dihedral calculation scheme rather than the get_dihedral command. Thus, it is lightning fast! If a selection does not contain any ribose sugars then an error message is returned. USAGE load the script using the run command pucker selection #Calculates the sugar information for the given selection pucker selection, state=1 #Calculates the sugar information for the given selection in state 1 pucker selection, state=0 #Iterates over all states and calculates the sugar information for the given selection EXAMPLES <source lang="python"> fetch 1BNA.pdb fetch 1bna Select DNA only Otherwise, you will get an error for water not having sugars select DNA, not solvent Execute pucker ..→
