Introduction¶

This tutorial shows how to use the ANM to analyze the motions of proteins in the presence of membranes.

Required Programs¶

The latest version of ProDy is required for calculations, and the latest version of VMD is required for visualization.

Getting Started¶

To follow this tutorial, you will need the following files:

5K Feb 29 20:20 2nwl_blocks.txt
1008K Feb 29 20:20 2NWL-opm.pdb
6K Feb 29 20:20 3kbc_blocks.txt
1M Feb 29 20:20 3KBC-opm.pdb

We recommend that you will follow this tutorial by typing commands in an iPython session, e.g.:

$ ipython

or with pylab environment:

$ ipython --pylab

First, we will make necessary imports from ProDy and Matplotlib packages.

In [1]: from prody import *

In [2]: from pylab import *

In [3]: ion()

We have included these imports in every part of the tutorial, so that code copied from the online pages is complete. You do not need to repeat imports in the same Python session.
