Spruce Output Naming Conventions

Output files generated from Spruce follows a general naming scheme.

{StructureID}_{ChainIDs}[alt{AltCode}]__DU__{LigandCode}_{ChainID}-{ResidueNumber}.oedu

The scheme can be prefixed by the user using the -prefix input parameter. The user can also control the output to a single file using the -out, and additionally, set -warts to append “_#” to the user specified output name.

Example of a structure without an alternate location, 2 files generate due to two ligand sites detected:

4ICL_AB__DU__T27_A-601.oedu

4ICL_AB__DU__14N_A-607.oedu

Example with an alternate location code:

1XDN_AaltA__DU__ATP_A-501.oedu

For apo structures, the residue named is the one closest to the center of the marked binding site. That is unless the user has provided a binding site residue to indicate the binding site, in which case that is used in the title and filename. Apo pocket example:

1HHP_AB__DU__apo_ASP_A-25.oedu

Peptidic ligand example, where the ligand section is named slightly differently following the scheme chainID-StartingResidueNumber-1LetterCodes-EndingResidueNumber. Only standard residue get 1 letter codes, whereas nonstandard residue will have 3 letter codes separated by dashes.

4OBD_AB__DU__E-2-PGNFFQNRP-10.oedu
