Creating OEDesignUnits from a PDB file

Preparation of a biological structure file (PDB, mmCIF) to a fully charged, hydrogenated, molecular componentized object (design unit; DU; OEDesignUnit) is one of the more advanced functionalities offered through Spruce TK. This example shows how to construct DUs using an input PDB file and the OEMakeDesignUnits function.

Command Line Interface

This example uses an input PDB file, and will output a set of DUs from it to a temporary directory (see OEMakeDesignUnits for details on the API).

prompt> make_design_units <input biomolecular PDB> [<electron density mtz>] [<LoopModelingTemplateDB>]

Code

Example

will generate the following output:
