Revision as of 16:48, 5 January 2011

Acknowledgement

This script is based on the scaffold from ColorByRMSD. Peace love and harmomy goes to Shivender Shandilya and Jason Vertrees.

Introduction

This script allows you to color two structures by distance displacement between a Open and Closed form of a protein, as calculated by PyMol's internal distance command. The pairwise, C-alpha or all-atom. . The RMSD values are stored as B-factors of these residues, which are colored by a rainbow color spectrum, with blue specifying the minimum pairwise RMSD and red indicating the maximum. With uncommenting/commenting it is possible to make Residues NOT used by Super for superposition, and hence for distance displacement calculation, colored white.

Code

Please use this script with the option doColor=T to print the coloring. Do keep in mind, all original B-factors values are overwritten!

There exist two versions.
ColorByDisplacementCA is quick and is between CA atoms. Ideal for helices representation.
ColorByDisplacementAll is between All atoms in residues and is quite slow => 3-5 mins for a run. Ideal for sticks representation.


Examples

# example #1
ColorByDisplacementCA O5NT, C5NT, doColor=T, doAlign=T, super1=resi 26-355, super2=resi 26-355
ColorByDisplacementAll O5NT, C5NT, doColor=T, doAlign=T, super1=resi 26-355, super2=resi 26-355

    ColorByDisplacementCA --
	Show the distance displacement deviation in color to more easily see variable regions.

    PARAMS

        objSel1 (valid PyMOL object or selection)
            The first object

        objSel2 (valid PyMOL object or selection)
            The second object

        doColor (boolean, either True or False)
            If doColor=True then a simple representation is created to
            highlight the differences.  If False, then no changes are made.
            DEFAULT: False

    RETURNS
        None.

    SIDE-EFFECTS
        Modifies the B-factor columns in your original structures.
