User:Karsten Theis/Linear interpolation

From Proteopedia

This is a Jmol script that does linear interpolation. You need two sets of atoms that contain the same structure in the same order (but in a different conformation or position). Here, I am using residues 5 and 6 of 1BNA.

load =1BNA
show 5 or 6
five = {5}.xyz.all
six = {6}.xyz.all
progress = 0.5
ssergorp = 1 - progress
for (var i FROM [1,21]) {five[i] = (five[i] * progress + six[i] * ssergorp)}
{6}.xyz = @five

Try it

spinqualitylabelsall models PDB ID 1bna Show:Asymmetric Unit Biological Assembly Drag the structure with the mouse to rotate   Export Animated Image To try it, right-click in the Jmol window to open the console, and then copy and paste commands from above into the console input. The coordinates of base six will be changed to show an interpolation between five and six. Depending on the variable "progress", the resulting coordinates will be closer to the original coordinates or those of five.
