Secondary Structure Information
Secondary structure assignments are read with the
-secstr
option. The program DSSP can be used to determine secondary structure
from an input PDB file. The DSSP output can be converted to DireX secondary
structure format with the script
dssp2dx, which comes with
DireX.
The format that DireX uses looks as follows:
1 | 3 | A | A | |
2 | 4 | A | F | B |
3 | 5 | A | T | |
4 | 6 | A | V | H |
5 | 7 | A | D | H |
6 | 8 | A | Q | H |
7 | 9 | A | M | H |
8 | 10 | A | R | H |
9 | 11 | A | S | H |
