The
morph command is an incentive PyMOL feature (not available in open-source version). Given a two-state object,
morph can create an interpolated trajectory from the first to the second conformation.
Notice: There is a new morph command in PyMOL 1.6
Usage
morph source, target [, first [, last [, refinement [, async [, steps ]]]]]
Arguments
- source = string: name of two-state input object
- target = string: name of output object to create
- first = int: start state of source {default: 1}
- last = int: end state of source {default: 2}
- refinement = int: number of sculpting refinement cycles to clean distorted intermediates {default: 10}
- steps = int: number of states for target object {default: 30}
Warning: arguments first, last and steps new in PyMOL 1.5 (up to 1.4 they are always at default values)
Example
<syntaxhighlight lang="python">
- get open and closed conformation of adenylate kinase
fetch 1ake 4ake, async=0
- make two state object
align 1ake and chain A, 4ake and chain A, ..→
