How to make 3d model of a protein that not exist in PDB?

No PDB Getting a crystal structure is hard work for crystallographers, even with a high throughput systems, so they make constructs with only known domains or regions of particular interest. What ...

BinaryCIF vs MMTF formats, which one to choose?

So binaryCIF is newer and is heavily inspired by MMTF. NGL, the most "loved" JS library (IMO) to show protein fetches proteins as MMTF, while Mol* uses bCIF —Mol* has the official repo of ...

Read PDB file, extract dihedral angles, modify dihedral angles, reconstruct Cartesian coordinates, and write PDB file

I do not know if there is a function in Biopython.PDB for dihedral space transformations, but due to the lack of answers I would say no. Biopython.PDB is nice and clean, but I would use something with ...

Algorithm for counting neighbors

The usual method is dividing the space into cells, in your case 7Å cubes, assigning atoms to cells, and searching for neighbors only in 3x3x3=27 cells. This method is described in Wikipedia as cell ...

Determining position of side chain hydrogen in glycine residues from coordinates of backbone atoms

Glycine has a single hydrogen atom as its side chain: All the six bond angles with the CA atom in the middle are about 109° (C-CA-N, C-CA-HA3, C-CA-HA2, N-CA-HA3, N-CA-HA2 and HA3-CA-HA2 using the ...

How to measure or assign hydrophobicity score values to individual amino acids of a PDB structure?

No, this doesn't makes sense (I think). The hydrophobicity of an AA is the hydrophobicity of the AA, in whatever context, just like it's molecular weight. It's weight is it's weight, in a structure ...
