[edit] Pymol settings
For rendering proteins in Pymol, I usually use the following settings:
- color lightblue, (name CA)
- color red, ss h
- color blue, ss s
- color wheat, ss l+
- viewport 600,450
- set ray_trace_frames = 0
- set cache_frames = 1
- set cartoon_fancy_helices = 1
Animating proteins is useful to gain an idea of the 3D structure. To render the movie of the protein, I then add:
- mset 1 x50
- util.mroll(1,50,1)
- mplay
Then, to save the movie as a series of sequential png files:
- mpng mov
Finally, I need to convert the png to an animated GIF using the Linux convert command:
- convert -loop 0 mov*.png out.gif
