Hi All-
I've read in a PDB structure (see below), and would like to get the
residue name for specific sequence positions (e.g. residue number
5). Can someone suggest to me how to do this? I cannot figure it
out using the Structural Biopython FAQ.
# ---> start
from Bio.PDB import *
pdb='file.pdb'
p=PDBParser();
s=p.get_structure('THE_STRUCTURE', pdb)
# i figured i can get the residue list using this
res_list = Selection.unfold_entities(s, 'R')
# but i'm not sure what to do next, or if there is a better way to
get the information
# what i would like to do is a get_resname(5), to get the residue
type of residue 5 (e.g. ASP)
# ---> end
Thanks,
Doug
