Did you know... Cart to frac = Overview = This script will convert the real space orthonormal cartesian coordinates of a selection to the fractional coordinates given the loaded cell symmetry. Thanks to Wikipedia. Example # load the script run cart_to_frac.py # fetch a protein and test fetch 1rx1, async=0 # get the coordinates for the organic small # molecule as fractional coordinates print cart_to_frac("org") The Code <source lang="python"> from pymol import cmd def cart_to_frac(objSel,quiet=0,_self=cmd): """ Returns an array of fractional atomic coordinates for a given object or selection. PARAMS objSel -- any object or selection quiet -- suppress output (default, no) _self -- core CMD object; or none RETURNS Python list of fractional coordinates NOTES/EXAMPLES cart_to_frac org x = cart_to_frac("solvent", quiet=1) """ import numpy from numpy import cos, sin, sqrt a2r = ..→
