schrodinger.structutils.sitealign module¶

Perform a pairwise superposition of multiple structures using the C-alpha atoms of selected residues.

schrodinger.structutils.sitealign.get_ligand_asl(cutoff=5.0, molnum=None, fillres=True)[source]¶

Returns an ASL expression defining binding site atoms based on the ligand molecule number and cutoff distance. This ASL specifically identifies the C-alpha atoms.

Parameters

cutoff (float) – Cutoff from ligand used to asign binding site atoms
molnum (int) – The molecule number fo the ligand. If None the ligand will be automatically detected.
fillres (bool) – Use all atoms in a residue if any atom is found

Returns

ASL expression for binding site atoms

Return type

str

schrodinger.structutils.sitealign.get_residue_asl(residues)[source]¶

Returns an ASL expression defining binding site atoms based on the residue strings passed in. This ASL specifically identifies the C-alpha atoms.

Parameters: residues (list of residue strings (<chain>:<resnum>)) – Residues used to define binding site atoms
Returns: ASL expression for binding site atoms
Return type: str

class schrodinger.structutils.sitealign.SiteMatchLookup(ref_st, mobile_st, atom_map)[source]¶

Bases: object

Lookup for any reference and mobile structures that have matching binding site atoms. This stores a reference structure and a mobile structure, along with their mapped C-alpha atoms.

The reason the terms reference and mobile are used is because when superimposing 2 structures for RMSD calculations the “reference” structure will always be the stationary structure by default. The “mobile” structure will have it’s coordinates changed to get an iteratively lower RMSD.

SUPERIMPOSED_PROPERTY = 'r_sitealign_Superimposed_RMSD'¶

INPLACE_PROPERTY = 'r_sitealign_In_Place_RMSD'¶

__init__(ref_st, mobile_st, atom_map)[source]¶

Parameters

ref_st (structure) – Reference structure
mobile_st (structure) – Mobile structure
atom_map (dict where keys are ref atom indices and values are the mobile atom indices that overlap the ref indices.) – Reference and mobile binding site atom map

getMobileStRMSD()[source]¶: Gets the inplace and superimposed RMSDs for the mobile st

property ref_keys¶

Getter for reference keys. The key is a list of residue strings defining the residues belonging to the reference structure.

Returns: List of residue strings defining residues in reference structure
Return type: list

property mob_keys¶

Getter for mobile keys. The key is a list of residue strings defining the residues belonging to the mobile structure. If the matching mobile key is None, an empty string is appended.

Returns: List of residue strings defining residues in mobile structure
Return type: list

getMatchingAtomMap()[source]¶

getSuperimposedRMSD()[source]¶

Superimpose mobile structure to reference structure. This will translate the mobile structure to the reference structure.

Returns: The RMSD after superimposing
Return type: float

getInPlaceRMSD(**kwargs)[source]¶

Get the in-place RMSD of the reference structure to the mobile structure. No translation happens.

Returns: The in-place RMSD
Return type: float
See: rmsd.calculate_in_place_rmsd for available kwargs

colorByRMSD()[source]¶

Color the reference and mobile structure by per-residue, backbone atom RMSD. This will change:

Style of all non-het atoms in mobile structure to “element”
Color of all non-het carbons in mobile structure to “user12”
Style of mobile backbone atoms to ball and stick
Color of mobile residues by red-blue scale depending on per-reside RMSD
- blue for RMSD below 0.1
- red for RMSD above 3.4

class schrodinger.structutils.sitealign.BindingSiteAligner(ref_st, mobile_sts, binding_site_asl, ignore_dist=5.0)[source]¶

Bases: object

Align structures by matching binding site atoms.

__init__(ref_st, mobile_sts, binding_site_asl, ignore_dist=5.0)[source]¶

Parameters

ref_st (schrodinger.structure.Structure) – The reference structure
mobile_sts (list of structures) – List of structures to align to the reference
binding_site_asl (str) – The asl used to define the binding site atoms
ignore_dist (float) – Minimum dist needed for atoms to match each other in reference struct and mobile structs

site_matches¶: List of each match found between the reference structure and each mobile structure. These contain the reference structure and a mobile structure sharing at least 3 C-alpha binding site atoms.

matrix_matches¶: List of each match found between mobile structures. These contain the pair of mobile structures that share at least 3 C-alpha binding site atoms with each other and with self.reference.

setBindingSiteAtoms(asl=None)[source]¶

Sets the binding site atoms to the asl provided.

Parameters: asl (str) – The asl used to define the binding site atoms. If None self.asl will be used (from asl passed in in init).
Raises: RuntimeError – If the asl does not return at least 3 atom indices

setSiteMatches()[source]¶: Set the self.site_matches variable. This stores all the lookups that will be used to calculate the RMSDs. There will be no SiteMatchLookup created for mobiles sites that do not have at least 3 atoms matching the reference binding site atoms .

alignSites(inplace=False, color_by_rmsd=False)[source]¶

Align all structures from self.site_matches. This will return the aligned mobile structures.

All mobile structures have a r_sitealign_inlpace_rmsd property added to them indicating the RMSD in-place of the reference and the mobile structure.

If inplace=False another property, r_sitealign_superimposed_rmsd is added to the mobile structure indicating the RMSD of the reference and mobile structure after they have been superimposed.

Parameters

inplace (bool) – Whether to run RMSD calculations in-place or not
color_by_rmsd (bool) – Color the mobile atoms by RMSD. Can only be used if inplace is False

Returns

The mobile structures (aligned if inplace=False)

Return type

list(structures<schrodinger.structure.Structure)

calculateMatrix()[source]¶

Generates an in-place RMSD matrix between all mobile structures in self.site_matches.

This method will go through all combinations of mobile structures in self.site_matches, in subsequences of two. It will then test for 3 common C-alpha atoms between the two mobile structures that have matches with the reference structure. Example: self.site_matches has 3 matches, A, B and C. The matrix calculation will loop over:

A and B, then
A and C, then
B and C

Pairs of mobile structures that do not share 3 atoms with each other and with the reference will be skipped.

The in-place RMSD can be accessed in two ways. One way is to write the data out to a CSV-formatted file. This file contains a header and then each row will summarize teh RMSD calculated. This file can be written using the self.writeMatrixData() method. The second way to access the RMSD information is to get it from the returned lookups:

matrix_matches = aligner.calculateMatrix()
for match in matrix_matches:
    mobile_st1   = match.ref_st
    mobile_st2   = match.mobile_st
    inplace_rmsd = match.inplace_rmsd

Return type: list(SiteMatchLookup)
Returns: Lookups for each pair of mobile atoms sharing at least 3 atoms with each other and the reference
Raises: RuntimeError – If less than 2 mobile structures were aligned to reference

writeStructures(filename)[source]¶

Write reference and mobile structures to a file. This will write the structures to a file based on their current state. If this is called right after initializing the class the structures will be unaltered. If this is called after sites are superimposed the structures written will be superimposed.

Parameters: filename (str) – File name to write structures to

getAlignedMobileStructures()[source]¶: Returns a generator that iterates over the aligned mobile structures

writeAlignData(filename)[source]¶

Write out all RMSD data for mobile structures aligned to the reference structure.

Parameters: filename (str) – File name to write csv data to

writeMatrixData(filename)[source]¶

Write out all RMSD data for mobile structures aligned to other mobile structures.

Parameters: filename (str) – File name to write csv data to
