Highlights on atoms are white reflections of the "light source". Lighting effects can be employed to change the appearance of a molecular Meshribbons are two additional representations of backbone conformations.
#JMOL XYZ EXAMPLE SERIES#
Is a rendering similar to ribbons and cartoons, but with the backbonesĭisplayed as a series of thin lines. Cartoons does the same except that nucleicĪcid backbones are displayed as a trace and theĪre rendered as flat rings. Ribbons smooth the backbone, like trace, but display the backboneĪs a wide, flattened band. Or the phosphorus atoms of nucleic acids.Īre two displays that are excellent for showing secondary structure: Is a display similar to backbone, but with smoothed transitionsīetween the alpha carbons of a peptide chain Of each amino acid (protein) or phosphorus atoms (nucleic acid) Or the sugar-phosphate backbone of a nucleicĪcid as a train of bonds connecting the adjacent alpha carbons There are several displays that illustrate the backboneīackbone display shows the polypeptide backbone of a protein Sometimes showing only the backbone of a molecule Unless particular atoms are selected (see below, The Wireframe and dots displays can show Van der Waals surfaces clearlyįar, we have considered displays that affect all atoms of a molecule, Dots combinesĮasily with other display commands to provide useful effects. Is a display similar to spacefill in that the diameter of the spheresįormed are equal to that of the Van der Waals radius. Radii can be altered by a numerical specification (see below).ĭifferent "ball and stick" representations can be achievedīy varying the thickness of wireframe and the radii of spacefill. Van der Waals radius of each atom as a solid sphere by default. The thickness of wireframe displays can provide useful alternatives S-S bonds) between all atoms of a molecule. Is very useful because it clearly shows the covalent bonds (except This is equivalent to the script "wireframe 0.5"ĭefault display for most pdbs is wireframe, as shown at left.
For example,Ī 'wireframe 125' script specifies a wireframe display in 125 RasMol Units are used as a default when no decimals are employed. RasMol units or Angstroms by adding a numerical value after the nameĪngstroms are indicated by a decimal in the numerical value and RasMol The displayĬodes (see below) can be modified to specify dimensions in either Novel unit, the RasMol unit 1 RasMol unit = 1/250 Å. One is the standard, atomic-resolution unit, the Angstrom Uses two different units of measurement that can be used with displayĬommands.
