Residues

Residue Names

residues. = rrange[[,rrange]].

"rrange"  = rname[[,rname]]       
          = rname-[rname]        
          = [rname]-rname         
          = [Nth_preceding]<rname
          = rname>[Nth_following]
          = rname-N-rname

rname is the name of a particular residue. rname consists of 1-5 characters from the set "A-Z" and "0-9". The punctuation mark "." (period) is a required terminator for the "residues." field. A given rname must be unique within a given "mol_chain".

The wildcard characters "*" (matches any character string) and "%" (matches a single character) are currently supported.

"residues"         Description

*.                 all residues (in the default or specified 
                      "mol_chains:")
100.               residue named "100"
100,105.           residues "100" and "105"
100-105.           residues starting with "100" and continuing 
                      through (and including) "105"
-105.              residues from the beginning of the chain up to 
                      and including "105"
105-.              residues starting at "105" and continuing to the 
                      end of the chain
3<105.             the third preceding residue to "105"
<105.              the residue immediately preceding residue "105"
105>3.             the third residue following "105"
105>.              the residue immediately following "105"
100-3-200.         every 3rd residue starting with "100" and 
                      continuing through (and including) "200"

 
 


Residue Type

rtype is a name denoting the type of a particular residue, e.g. 
"ALA", "GLY". rtype consists of 1-4 characters from the set "A-Z" 
and "0-9".
