Hi,
                I have trajectory output "dcd"  file  after running NVT
equilibration  for a  RNA  molecule.  I  use  it  to calculate  rmsd  using
rmsd.tcl  given in manual  where  I replace  protein by rna  as I  do not
find right keyword.
I have run "source rmsd.tcl" in TK console of vmd extension after loading
final psf and dcd files. But it gives parse error and do not produce output
rmsd.dat.  Please let me know the right keyword to use for RNA/DNA molecule.
Here is the rmsd.tcl  follows:
 set outfile [open rmsd.dat w]
set nf [molinfo top get numframes]
set frame0 [atomselect top "rna and backbone and noh" frame 0]
set sel [atomselect top "rna and backbone and noh"]
#rmsd calculation loop
for {set i 1} {$i < $nf} {incr i}{
$sel frame $i
$sel move [measure fit $sel $frame0]
puts $outfile "[measure rmsd $sel $frame0]"
}
close $outfile
Thanks in advance,
moumita
