Hi!
I know the sequence of the peptide. The main problem is that I don't know how to built it. Coul I do it with VMD or any other program?
Kind regards
Andres

Do you know the sequence of this peptide? If so, couldn't you build it and then "dock" it into your membrane (or a piece of it)? That's how I placed a molecule on the surface of a membrane.

Subject: namd-l: Bactenecine
Dear Users:
I need to simulate the interaction of the peptide (Bactenecine) with a phospholipid monolayer. So I haven’t be able to find Bactenecin’s crystal structure (pdb file) yet. Does anybody know where I could find it? Another option is to model that peptide since its amino-acid sequence, i.e, I need to make a pdb file of its random coil using special coordinates of its atoms (it is a 19-reside peptide). I haven’t worked in this before. Could I use VMD to do it? Or is there any program to do it? I hope anybody can help me.
Kind regards
