Uppsala Software Factory - Tutorials

Here I will add tutorials every now and then explaining how to do things that require the use of more than one program. They will not go into the details of separate programs; for that you will still need to consult the appropriate manual(s).
  1. Visualisation of planes. This explains how to visualise least-squares planes in O. The tutorial uses only Uppsala programs (MOLEMAN2 and O). In the example, a chain of nine twisting glucoses inside CBH I is visualised.

  2. Visualisation of tunnels. This explains how to visualise tunnels and other cavities in your protein that are connected to the outside world. The tutorial uses only Uppsala programs (MOLEMAN2, VOIDOO, MAMA, MAPMAN, and O).

  3. Biomolecular morphing. This explains how to visualise transitions between conformational states etc. in a jiffy, using LSQMAN and a molecular graphics program (e.g., O). The results can be published on the web, e.g. as animated GIF files.

  4. SBIN. This explains how to use the programs in the SBIN package to generate sequence patterns and profiles based on superimposed protein structures, and how to scan these against sequence databases such as SWISS-PROT.
