[PyMOL] Script to calculate Fab elbow angle

[Sampson, Jared]

Hello all -

I'd like to share with you this script that I recently added (with Troels' help) to the PyMOL Wiki.

http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Elbow_angle

Given a PyMOL object containing an antibody Fab fragment complex, light and heavy chain IDs for the Fab, and residue numbers for the boundary between variable and constant domains for each chain, the script will output the elbow angle of the Fab complex and optionally draw a representation of the vectors used to calculate it.

It's under version control in the Pymol-scripts-repo, and any suggestions and/or fixes are welcome.

Please note that elbow_angle requires transformations.py by Christoph Gohlke and com.py by Jason Vertrees, both of which are also available in the Pymol-scripts-repo.

Cheers,
Jared

Jared,

Very cool script -- and beautiful visualizations.

It's good to note that since it's in git-repo the new Plugin Manager
can access it (just be sure to install COM and transformations,
first). What used to take 3--5 minutes (downloading each script and
putting them somewhere after cleaning up the text) now takes just
seconds.

Great work.

Cheers,

-- Jason
