Dear colleagues,
How to drag the structure, preserving the secondary structure (alpha-helix and beta-sheet) geometry in Isolde? Can I set up certain restraints to keep the correct geometry of the structure while dragging it?
Many thanks!
Kind regards, Dmitry
Try "isolde restrain torsions sel" and/or "isolde restrain distances sel". You can also do this via the "Reference Models" section of the ISOLDE GUI (just choose "(self)" in the Reference model drop-down menu), but the commands give you more flexibility. When you're doing big rearrangements like this, it is also usually preferable to use the "tug selection" mouse mode (far right of the ISOLDE ribbon menu while you're running a simulation) rather than the default "tug atom".
Best, Tristan
