Re: Aggregation related analysis scripts

I wrote some code find clusters a while back. You make a selection
with "selectText" that contains the residues that you want to find
clusters for. The code iterates through the frames of a list of dcd
files and uses pbwithin to determine which residues in the selection
neighbor another. The proc "searchOverlap" finds clusters of connected
residues. There are four output files that store the result for each
frame, specifically the mean cluster size, the number of clusters, the
size of the largest cluster, and a list of the number of residues in
each cluster. You can set the parameters of the script at the top. You
may have to modify the code for your application. Here's the code.

# Author: Jeff Comer <jeffcomer at gmail>
set name test
set selectText "resname PEG and resid 11"
set threshDist 4.5
set psf nh_stride5_eqSalt_sio20min_peg19.psf
set dcdFreq 25000
set timestep 2
set stride 1
set outDir Cluster
set dcdList {nh_stride5_eqSalt_sio20min_peg19.dcd}
