3DNA[http://3dna.rutgers.edu] provides a perl script (<b>blocview</b>) which produces Calladine-Drew style block representations based on the standard reference frame for nucleic acids. The produced files are in raster3D format, and are also processed by molscript. Therefore to produce the following representations you will need to install:

Update: See also the dssr_block wrapper script for x3dna-dssr.

3DNA[1] provides a ruby script (blocview) which produces Calladine-Drew style block representations based on the standard reference frame for nucleic acids. The produced files are in raster3D format, and are also processed by molscript. Therefore to produce the following representations you will need to install:

- 3DNA [2]

- Raster 3D [3]

- Molscript [4]

Once you have the previous software installed, and the path to their binaries correctly configured, you can get the block representation for any nucleic acid. The next example shows how to do it for tRNA (PDB:ID 1ehz)

Invoking

 
pdb_get.py 1ehz
blocview -o 1ehz.pdb

The pdb_get python script comes from [5]Dr. Robert Campbell's website.

Once blocview is run it will generate various r3d files which can be combined with the original pdb files to produce the following image:

Example 1

To generate the previous image the following script was used: trna.pml

Example 2

An automatically generated pymol ray traced image can also be obtained by running blocview from 3DNA v. 2.0 directly. Using the following command:

blocview -o -t=100 1ehz.pdb

And the result is:
