Dear sir, I have 100 pdb files. named as output.1.pdb to output.100.pdb what i do manually for clustering is as follows 1. select 100 pdbs -> open in chimera -> golto *File *-> *save PDB.. *-> *Save Multiple Models as PDB File *(renamed as all.pdb) 2. open chimera -> goto *Tools *->* MD/Ensemble Analysis *->* MD Movie* 3. in *Get Ensemble Info *dialogue box set -> *Trajectory format :* *PDB* *PDB frames contained in:* *single file* * Browse *to select File <all.pdb> *Use frames **first **through * *last* 4. on click *OK,* a dialogue box pops out, *MD Movie: PDB trajectory from all.pdb*, in which, goto *Analysis -> Cluster...*5.. on click* Cluster,* a dialogue box pops out,* Get Clustering Parameters,* in which I set *Cluster trajectory *as: *Starting frame: * *1* *step size: **1* *Ending frame:* * 100* *Cluster based on current selection, if any: * *true* *Ignore solvent and non metal ions: true* *Ignore hydrogens: * *true* *Ignore metal ions: * *alkali* 6. on click *OK, *after some RMSD calculation, i get the *Clustering* result, which I save to a text file <cluster> Now, as I need to do this for multiple times, I want to automate these steps by a python script. Can you please help with a scipt or some command help for the aforesaid tasks. Any help will be helpful in these regard. -- Thanks & Regards, Subhrangshu Das Junior Research Fellow, CSIR-IICB Department of Structural Biology & Bioinformatics Contact - IICB TRUE Campus, CN-6, Salt lake, Sector V, Kolkata-700091 *+919804938813*
