Super
Jump to navigation
Jump to search
super aligns two selections. It does a sequence-independent (unlike align) structure-based dynamic programming alignment followed by a series of refinement cycles intended to improve the fit by eliminating pairing with high relative variability (just like align). super is more robust than align for proteins with low sequence similarity.
Usage
See align command.
Caveats
- Alternative Conformations: If super ever tells you no matched atoms, then instead of try
super p1, p2
super p1 & alt A+'', p2 & alt B+''
