Making Progress



Woo-hoo! I'm making progress. :) I now have a perl program that parses a file with lists of residues, and then selects just those residues from a kinemage to make a new kinemage. I've been wanting to look at the interface between chains a and b in 7gpb. J wrote a matlab program that gave me a list of all residues within 10Å of the other chain (with distance, and which atoms), and now I have a perl program that will make his list into something useful. :) It took me way too long to do it, but I'm happy that I've gotten it done.

It isn't actually fully complete... it only checks the residue number of the first atom on each line, but it's close enough. I mainly wanted to get an idea of what the interface looks like. (I haven't decided if I care enough to iron out that last "bug"... this is more for my own analysis of a protein than for distribution. If I distribute, I'll iron out that bug.)
