StructureEditor


Introduction

The StructureEditor plugin shows the loaded molecules in hierarcical tree. The window is divided to two panes: Left listing every top-level object, and Right showing a tree for one selected top-level object. Data read from one file forms usually a top-level object. Alignments are also top-level objects.

The Query dialog

The query dialog lets the user to define regular expressions for chain, residue and atom. The action buttons will then perform such query on the current tree, selecting and deselecting atoms.

Note: Residues in polypeptide chains use three-letter name of the amino-acid combined with a Sequence identifier. The sequence identifier contains a integer number and an insertion character, which is usually a whitespace. The regular expression must take this into account.
