pdbdistplot(PDBid)
pdbdistplot(PDBid, Distance)
| PDBid | String specifying a unique identifier for a protein structure record. Each structure in the PDB is represented by a 4-character alphanumeric identifier. For example, 4hhb is the identification code for hemoglobin. |
| Distance | Threshold distance in angstroms shown on a spy plot. Default is 7. |
pdbdistplot displays the distances between atoms and amino acids in a PDB structure.
pdbdistplot(PDBid) retrieves the entry PDBid from the Protein Data Bank (PDB) database and creates a heat map showing interatom distances and a spy plot showing the residues where the minimum distances apart are less than 7 angstroms. PDBid is a string specifying an entry in the PDB database or the name of a variable or a file containing a PDB MATLAB structure.
pdbdistplot(PDBid, Distance) specifies the threshold distance shown on a spy plot.
Display a spy plot at 7 angstroms of the protein cytochrome C from albacore tuna.
pdbdistplot('5CYT');Display a spy plot at 10 angstroms of the same structure.
pdbdistplot('5CYT',10);Bioinformatics Toolbox functions: getpdb, molviewer, pdbread, proteinplot, ramachandran
