Usage
torsion.pdb(pdb)
Arguments
pdb a PDB structure object as obtained from function read.pdb.
Details
The conformation of a polypeptide chain can be usefully described in terms of angles of internal rotation around its constituent bonds. See the related torsion.xyz function, which is called by this function, for details.
Value
Returns a list object with the following components:
phi main chain torsion angle for atoms C,N,CA,C.
psi main chain torsion angle for atoms N,CA,C,N.
omega main chain torsion angle for atoms CA,C,N,CA.
alpha virtual torsion angle between consecutive C-alpha atoms.
chi1 side chain torsion angle for atoms N,CA,CB,*G.
chi11 side chain torsion angle for atoms N,CA,CB,*G1.
chi12 side chain torsion angle for atoms N,CA,CB,*G2.
chi2 side chain torsion angle for atoms CA,CB,*G,*D.
chi21 side chain torsion angle for atoms CA,CB,*G,*D1.
chi22 side chain torsion angle for atoms CA,CB,*G,*D2.
chi3 side chain torsion angle for atoms CB,*G,*D,*E.
chi31 side chain torsion angle for atoms CB,*G,*D,*E1.
chi32 side chain torsion angle for atoms CB,*G,*D,*E2.
chi4 side chain torsion angle for atoms *G,*D,*E,*Z.
chi51 side chain torsion angle for atoms *D,*E,*Z, NH1.
chi52 side chain torsion angle for atoms *D,*E,*Z, NH2.
coords numeric matrix of ‘justified’ coordinates.
