Pucke.rs

A program to generate dihedral values in order to perform conformational sampling on :

peptide-like molecules (or any set of two torsion angles),
five-membered furanose rings,
six-membered pyranose rings.

Usage

Pucke.rs help menu :
            --peptide  NUM : to generate torsion angles for peptide-like systems
            --fivering NUM : to generate torsion angles for five-membered ring systems
            --sixring  NUM : to generate torsion angles for six-membered ring systems
            -h or --help   : to print this menu. "

Torsion angles

The flags --peptide, --fivering and --sixring are to be used with an NUM (integer value).

--peptide NUM indicates the amount of evenly spaced values, with NUM^2 being the amount of conformations to be sampled for
--fivering NUM indicates the amount of evenly spaced values, with NUM^2 being the amount of conformations to be sampled for
--sixring NUM indicates the (near) amount of conformations to be sampled for

Example

$ puckers --peptide 37
$ puckers --fivering 21 
$ puckers --sixring 630
