How to calculate RMSD and RMSF
From Computational Biophysics and Materials Science Group
RMSD TCL File
Save the following text into a tcl file and execute it. Modify it accordingly.
set molnum [mol new ../../ionized.pdb type pdb waitfor all] #for {set i 1 } {$i<2} {incr i} { mol addfile NPT-01.dcd type dcd step 4 waitfor all mol addfile NPT-02.dcd type dcd step 4 waitfor all #} set num_frames [molinfo $molnum get numframes] set a0 [atomselect top "protein " frame 0] set b [atomselect top "protein"] set outfile [open "rmsd-npt.dat" "w"] for {set i 0} {$i<$num_frames} {incr i} { $b frame $i $b move [measure fit $b $a0] set rmsd1 [measure rmsd $b $a0] puts $outfile "$i \t $rmsd1 " } close $outfile
RMSF TCL File
Save the following text into a tcl file and execute it. Modify it accordingly.
set molnum [mol new ../../ionized.pdb type pdb waitfor all] for {set i 3 } {$i<5} {incr i} { mol addfile NPT-0$i.dcd type dcd step 4 waitfor all } set num_frames [molinfo $molnum get numframes] set kk 2250 set a [atomselect top "protein and name CA and segname P1 and resid 1 to 198" ] set c [atomselect top "protein and name CA and segname P1 and resid 1 to 198" frame $kk] for {set i 0} {$i<$num_frames} {incr i} { $a frame $i $a move [measure fit $a $c] } set outfile [open "rmsf-chain1-n-mar26-cse.dat" "w"] set rmsf [measure rmsf $a first $kk last -1 step 1] for {set i 0} {$i < [$a num] } {incr i} { puts $outfile "[expr {$i+1}] [lindex $rmsf $i]" } close $outfile
