NAME


gmx-helix - Calculate basic properties of alpha helices

SYNOPSIS


gmx helix [-s [<.tpr>]] [-n [<.ndx>]] [-f [<.xtc/.trr/...>]]
[-cz [<.gro/.g96/...>]] [-b <time>] [-e <time>]
[-dt <time>] [-[no]w] [-r0 <int>] [-[no]q] [-[no]F]
[-[no]db] [-[no]ev] [-ahxstart <int>] [-ahxend <int>]

DESCRIPTION


gmx helix computes all kinds of helix properties. First, the peptide is checked to find
the longest helical part, as determined by hydrogen bonds and phi/psi angles. That bit is
fitted to an ideal helix around the z-axis and centered around the origin. Then the
following properties are computed:

· Helix radius (file radius.xvg). This is merely the RMS deviation in two dimensions
for all Calpha atoms. it is calculated as sqrt((sum_i (x^2(i)+y^2(i)))/N) where N is
the number of backbone atoms. For an ideal helix the radius is 0.23 nm.

· Twist (file twist.xvg). The average helical angle per residue is calculated. For an
alpha-helix it is 100 degrees, for 3-10 helices it will be smaller, and for 5-helices
it will be larger.

· Rise per residue (file rise.xvg). The helical rise per residue is plotted as the
difference in z-coordinate between Calpha atoms. For an ideal helix, this is 0.15 nm.

· Total helix length (file len-ahx.xvg). The total length of the helix in nm. This is
simply the average rise (see above) times the number of helical residues (see below).

· Helix dipole, backbone only (file dip-ahx.xvg).

· RMS deviation from ideal helix, calculated for the Calpha atoms only (file
rms-ahx.xvg).

· Average Calpha - Calpha dihedral angle (file phi-ahx.xvg).

· Average phi and psi angles (file phipsi.xvg).

· Ellipticity at 222 nm according to Hirst and Brooks.
