Variations of both these approaches are also implemented in bio3d. This is particularly useful when the structures (and hence usually the sequences) to be compared are dissimilar to the point where sequence comparison may give erroneous results. Hence the superposition is said to be sequence based.Īn alternative approach is to use a structure only alignment method (e.g. the mustang() function) as a basis for superposition. The later of theses does the actual superposition based on all the aligned positions returned from seqaln(). Underlying the pdbfit() function are calls to the seqaln() and fit.xyz() functions. # + attr: xyz, resno, b, chain, id, ali, resid, sse, call

This is all part of the R S3 object orientation system. This stands for secondary structure elements and is recognized by the plot.bio3d() function to annotate the positions of major secondary structure elements in the marginal regions of these plots (see Figure 1). So for example, the generic lect() function knows that the input is of class “pdb”, rather than for example an AMBER parameter and topology file, and will act accordingly.Ī careful reader will also of noted that our “pdb” object created above also has a second class, namely “sse” (see the output of attributes(pdb) or class(pdb)). A generic function is a function that examines the class of its first argument, and then decides what type of operation to perform (more specifically it decides which specific method to dispatch to). This is recognized by other so called generic Bio3D functions (for example lect(), nma(), print(), summary() etc.). Objects created by the read.pdb() function are of class “pdb”.
