Isomesh

isomesh creates a mesh isosurface object from a map object.

Usage

isomesh name, map, level [,(selection) [,buffer [,state [,carve ]]]] 
  • name = str: the name for the new mesh isosurface object.
  • map = str: the name of the map object to use for computing the mesh.
  • level = float: the contour level (in sigma units) {default: 1.0}
  • selection = str: an atom selection about which to display the mesh with an additional "buffer" (if provided).
  • buffer = float: (see selection)
  • state = int: the state into which the object should be loaded (default=1) (set state=0 to append new mesh as a new state) {default: 1}
  • carve = float: a radius about each atom in the selection for which to include density. If "carve" is not provided, then the whole brick is displayed.

Example

<source lang="python"> fetch 6sps fetch 6sps, type=2fofc

  1. mesh for entire map object

isomesh mesh_all, 6sps_2fofc

  1. mesh within bounding box of ligand, enlarged by 2 Angstrom

isomesh mesh_ligand, 6sps_2fofc, selection=(resn LR5), buffer=2

  1. mesh only ..→
