RiboVis is a set of useful and short Python functions for making pictures of RNA and proteins in pymol in our 'lab style'. For a quick preview:
Function | Description |
---|---|
rr() |
For RNA: with 2′ OH as spheres, bases as filled rings, and backbone as cartoon ribbons, rainbow colored from 5′ to 3′. No hydrogens, white background. |
rd() |
For proteins: side chains are all-atom and colored CPK, backbone is rainbow cartoon from N to C terminus. |
sa() |
Superimposes all models to the first one. Thanks to Kyle Beauchamp for this one |
And more! ...
