g_mdmat(1) - Linux man page

Name

g_mdmat - calculates residue contact maps

VERSION 4.5.4-dev-20110404-bc5695c

Synopsis

g_mdmat -f traj.xtc -s topol.tpr -n index.ndx -mean dm.xpm -frames dmf.xpm -no num.xvg -[no]h -[no]version -nice int -b time -e time -dt time -xvg enum -t real -nlevels int

Description

g_mdmat makes distance matrices consisting of the smallest distance between residue pairs. With -frames, these distance matrices can be stored in order to see differences in tertiary structure as a function of time. If you choose your options unwisely, this may generate a large output file. By default, only an averaged matrix over the whole trajectory is output. Also a count of the number of different atomic contacts between residues over the whole trajectory can be made. The output can be processed with xpm2ps to make a PostScript (tm) plot.
