Did you know... FindSurfaceCharge Type Python Module Download findSurfaceCharge.py Author(s) Teddy Warner License BSD-2-Clause This code has been put under version control in the project Pymol-script-repo Drawing upon the findSurfaceResidues script, the findSurfaceCharge script will identify and output a list of all charged residues on the surface of a selectionand calculates the ionization state of a protein at a given pH. The charge can be calculated for either a folded or denatured protein. This function is intended to be used to give buffer conditions for mass spectrometry. Usage findSurfaceCharge [selection, [pH, [folded ,[cutoff]]]] Arguments selection = str: The object or selection for which to find exposed residues {default: all} pH = float: The pH to calculate the surface charge at {default: 7.0} folded = bool: Whether the program should calculate the charge of a folded (True) or denatured (False) protein. cutoff = float: The cutoff in square Angstroms that defines exposed or not. Those atoms with > cutoff Ang^2 exposed ..→
