Splitting a Macro-molecular Complex

A program that splits components of a protein structure, returning separate ligand, protein-complex, waters, and other molecules.

An example command that limits the protein-complex output to just the binding site residues would be:

prompt> python splitmolcomplex.py -separateresidues input.pdb output.oeb.gz

Help is available for all the supported OESplitMolComplexOptions parameters:

prompt> python splitmolcomplex.py --help all
