From: Rigidity analysis of protein biological assemblies and periodic crystal structures
Step | Description |
---|---|
Selection and Curation | 324 PDB files selected for analysis |
Building of Crystal Lattice | supercell.py and custom scripts were used to apply symmetry and translation operations on each protein's asymmetric unit |
Performing Rigidity Analysis | The KINARI software was used to calculate the rigid regions of the asymmetric unit and crystal lattices of each protein |
Identifying Rigid Clusters | The rigidity results were analyzed to determine if interactions of unit cells led to larger rigid clusters. |
