DESCRIPTION

modevectors.py is a PyMol script that was originally written to visualize results obtained from Normal Mode Analysis (NMA). However, this script can be used to visualize the direction of motion between two specified states. The strength of this script is that the arrows are highly customizable with numerous options to choose from (see script below).

USAGE

load the script using the run command

modevectors first_obj_frame, last_obj_frame [,outname=modevectors [,head=1.0 [,tail=0.3 [,head_length=1.5 [,headrgb=(1.0,1.0,1.0) [,tailrgb=(1.0,1.0,1.0) [,cutoff=4.0 [,skip=0 [,cut=0.5 [,atom=CA [,stat=show [,factor=1.0]]]]]]]]]]]

Please see the script comments for further custom options. Once the script completes, it will generate a new object called "modevectors" (which can be changed through the options).


EXAMPLES

modevectors 1E3M, 1W7A
modevectors 1E3M, 1W7A, outname="arrows"
modevectors 1E3M, 1W7A, atom="P"

	USAGE

	While in PyMOL

	load modevectors.py

	modevectors( first_obj_frame, last_obj_frame, outname=modevectors, head=1.0,tail=0.3, head_length=1.5, headrgb=(1.0,1.0,1.0),tailrgb=(1.0,1.0,1.0),cutoff=4.0,skip=0,cut=0.5,atom=CA,stat=show,factor=1.0)

	Parameter                Preset            Type    Description
	first_obj_frame          Undefined         String  Object name of the first structure.  The mode vector will propagate from this structure.  Defined by user.
	last_obj_frame           Undefined         String  Object name of the last structure.  The mode vector (arrow head) will end at this structure.  Defined by user.
	outname                  modevectors       String  Name of object to store mode vectors in.
	head                     1.0               Float   Radius for the circular base of the arrow head (cone)
	tail                     0.3               Float   Radius for the cylinder of the arrow tail (cylinder)
	head_length              1.5               Float   Length of the arrow head (from the base of the cone to the tip of cone)
	head_rgb                 1.0,1.0,1.0       String  RGB colour for the arrow head.
	tail_rgb                 1.0,1.0,1.0       String  RGB colour for the arrow tail.
	cutoff                   4.0               Float   Skips mode vectors that do not meet the cutoff distance (in Angstroms).
	skip                     0                 Integer Denotes how many atoms to skip.  No arrows will be created for skipped atoms.
	cut                      0.0               Float   Truncates all arrow tail lengths (without disturbing the arrow head) (in Angstroms).
	atom                     CA                String  Designates the atom to derive mode vectors from.
	stat                     show              String  Keeps track and prints statistics (total modevectors, skipped, cutoff).
	factor                   1.0               Float   Multiplies each mode vector length by a specified factor.
	                                                   Values between 0 and 1 will decrease the relative mode vector length.
							   Values greater than 1 will increase the relative mode vector length.
