Hi Thomas,
Thanks for the pointer; it is indeed useful. However, what I need is a bit
more complicated...
Suppose I have a known structure, say "A-coil1-B-coil2-C", obtained from
the PDB database, where 'A', 'B', and 'C' are secondary structural
elements, connected by coil1 and coil2. I would like to modify coil1 and
coil2 (by changing both their sequence and length), but retain the original
relative orientations and hydrogen-bonding of A, B and C.
VMD community: any suggestions about this?
Thanks,
Neelanjana
