Subject: Computation of a vdW surface area

Dear Colleagues;

         Attached to the end of this note is a MOPAC internal coordinates 
file for the molecule endosulfan.  If anyone can use this MOPAC strufture 
to calculate the van der Waals (not solvent accessible) surface area of 
endosulfan _as is_ (i.e. without minimisation or other modification), I'd 
appreciate hearing from you.  I will need to know the value of your 
calculated vdW surface area (A^2) and the identify of the software you used 
to compute it.

Thanks in advance to all responders,

S. Shapiro

Subject: PyMOL 0.41 Windows Binaries Released

PyMOL is a molecular graphics program which uses Python as its scripting
language.  It is still under development and is not yet ready for usage
by novices.  However, experienced molecular graphics users and
developers who know Python may find it valuable in its present form.

I have compiled a Win32 installable binary and placed it on the
SourceForge web site ( http://pymol.sourceforge.net ).  Unix users can
compile the source from the CVS repository.  This is an early release,
so please set your expectations low.  The GUI is very limited, and you
will almost certainly encounter problems.

What PyMOL currently provides is real-time and scriptable molecular
graphics capabilities on very low cost hardware.   In fact, I have
posted a recipe on the web site for a $1000 Athlon-based PC system which
will outperfom an SGI Octane costing over 30X as much.

PyMOL itself is free, open-source, and 100% unrestricted.  You can use
PyMOL for some of the same tasks you currently perform with non-free
programs such as Midas, Insight II, Grasp, Molscript, O, and Macromodel
(no minimization yet).  You can also build in-house systems or new
products around PyMOL without paying anyone a dime or having to disclose
your modifications (as under GPL).  Unfortunately, documentation on how
to do some of these tasks is currently non-existent.  My apologies, but
that is the nature of free/unfinished software.

The project is hosted on SourceForge.  Developers, testers, and
documenters are needed.  Development will progress slowly without some
extra help!

NOTE:  Under windows you will need:
(1) A fast accelerated 3D graphics card with OpenGL (REQUIRED).
(2) Python 1.52 installed ( http://www.python.org )
(3) A three-button mouse.

PyMOL's capabilties are numerous.  Highlights include:

- Fast real-time 3D graphics with OpenGL.
- A flexible atom selection language derived from X-PLOR.
- Seven molecular representations including surfaces.
- Animation of 1000+ states (trajectories, etc).
- A built-in ray-tracer for photorealistic images and movies.
- Display of electron density from XPLOR map files.
- Molecular editing capabilities.
- 100% scriptable.
and more....

Hello,

AFAIK there is no way of writing the answer to this question in a closed
formula. However I have a citation of G. P´olya who apparently wrote an
article on this topic:

Hi Everbody,

1) I am attempting to make a model of a Polymerizing Protein, which
builds micron-long filaments.
2) The model is to be coarse grained model (no atomic structure
available) of this, using concepts of Statstical Physics,
3) As an output I am interested in measuring the Conformation of entire
chains (lenght etc.).

If anybody knows of such an implementation, maybe from other
applications like organic polymers etc, please do let me know.

Cheers,

Subject: QUANTA: helix cartoon from CA-trace?





Dear CCL:

I like the "protein cartoons" that QUANTA produces (with secondary
structure elements appearing like fetuccine and unstructured elements
like spaghetti--maybe it should be called PASTA instead of QUANTA, but
I digress).

I know how to produce these cartoons (via QUANTA) using a full-atom
PDB file for my coordinates data, but I can't figure out how to do it
if the PDB contains only C-alpha coordinates (even when the PDB file
has Helix records in it).  In this case, QUANTA seems unable to
recognize secondary structure elements, so it renders the whole
protein as an unstructured (spaghetti) trace.

I've heard that it is possible to coax QUANTA into producing the sort
of cartoon I want even from a C-alpha-only PDB file.  Can someone tell
me how to do this?

Thanks!

Kevin

A halfbacked one: Use custom-bib to create it, it's pretty easy if you
know what it is supposed to look like.
