Detailed Description

This defines all of the segments (chains) in the model as CHARMMSegmentTopology objects, which in turn define the list of residues, the atoms in each residue, and their types and the connectivity between them.

A CHARMMTopology object can be created manually, in which case add_segment() can be called to add individual CHARMMSegmentTopology objects. In this way a new topology can be created, e.g. from protein primary sequence.

Alternatively, given an existing Hierarchy, e.g. as returned from read_pdb(), CHARMMParameters::create_topology() can be called to generate a new topology that corresponds to the primary sequence of the Hierarchy.

A new topology can be patched (apply_default_patches() or CHARMMPatch::apply()) to modify the simple chain of residues to account for modified residues, C- or N-termini special cases, disulfide bridges, etc.

Once a topology is created, it can be used to generate new particles which conform to that topology (create_hierarchy()), or to add topology information to an existing Hierarchy (e.g. add_atom_types(), add_bonds(), add_charges()).

Member Function Documentation

void IMP::atom::CHARMMTopology::add_atom_types ( Hierarchy  hierarchy) const

The primary sequence of the Hierarchy must match that of the topology.

See Also
CHARMMAtom.
kernel::Particles IMP::atom::CHARMMTopology::add_bonds ( Hierarchy  hierarchy) const

The primary sequence of the Hierarchy must match that of the topology. Parameters for the bonds (ideal bond length, force constant) are extracted from the CHARMM parameter file, using the types of each atom (add_atom_types() must be called first, or the particles otherwise manually typed using CHARMMAtom::set_charmm_type()).

If no parameters are defined for a given bond, the bond is created with zero stiffness, such that the bond can still be excluded from nonbonded interactions but BondSingletonScore will not score it.

Note that typically CHARMM defines bonds and impropers (see add_impropers()) but angles and dihedrals are auto-generated from the existing bond graph (see CHARMMParameters::create_angles() and CHARMMParameters::create_dihedrals()).

The list of newly-created Bond particles can be passed to a StereochemistryPairFilter to exclude bonded particles from nonbonded interactions, or to a BondSingletonScore to score each bond.

Returns
a list of the generated Bond decorators.
void IMP::atom::CHARMMTopology::add_charges ( Hierarchy  hierarchy) const

The primary sequence of the Hierarchy must match that of the topology.

See Also
Charged.
void IMP::atom::CHARMMTopology::add_coordinates ( Hierarchy  hierarchy) const

The primary sequence of the Hierarchy must match that of the topology.

This method can be used to add missing coordinates (e.g. of hydrogens or sidechains, such as those added by add_missing_atoms()), or to generate a starting conformation for a new Hierarchy (e.g. generated by create_hierarchy()). On exit, all atoms will have coordinates.

  • Cartesian coordinates for any atoms that are not currently core::XYZ particles are generated using internal coordinates that relate them to particles that do have XYZ coordinates.
  • For each segment (chain), if no atoms have coordinates but a triplet of atoms can be found where theit internal distances and angle can be determined from internal coordinates, these three atoms will be placed to seed the generation procedure. For the first segment, the atoms will be placed on the xy plane with the first atom at the origin. For subsequent segments, the first atom is placed offset by (2.,2.,2.) from the last atom in the previous segment.
  • If any atoms cannot be placed using either method, their coordinates are assigned randomly to lie near atoms that are near in sequence or, if no such atoms exist, near the segment origin.
Note
It is valid to specify internal coordinates in a CHARMM topology file that leave the angles or distances unspecified. This function will attempt to fill in this missing information using CHARMM atom types and the parameter file. Thus, better results will be obtained if add_atom_types() is called before this function, and the CHARMMParameters object used contains parameter information.
kernel::Particles IMP::atom::CHARMMTopology::add_dihedrals ( Hierarchy  hierarchy) const

The primary sequence of the Hierarchy must match that of the topology.

Typically, dihedrals are auto-generated from the existing bond graph (see CHARMMParameters::create_dihedrals()) rather than using this function.

Returns
a list of the generated Dihedral decorators.
See Also
add_bonds().
kernel::Particles IMP::atom::CHARMMTopology::add_impropers ( Hierarchy  hierarchy) const

The primary sequence of the Hierarchy must match that of the topology.

The list of newly-created Dihedral particles can be passed to a ImproperSingletonScore to score each improper dihedral.

Returns
a list of the generated Dihedral decorators.
See Also
add_bonds().
void IMP::atom::CHARMMTopology::add_missing_atoms ( Hierarchy  hierarchy) const

Missing atoms are defined as those present in the topology but not in the hierarchy. Newly-added atoms are assigned CHARMM types, but no coordinates (use add_coordinates() to add them). The primary sequence of the Hierarchy must match that of the topology.

See Also
CHARMMAtom, remove_charmm_untyped_atoms, add_coordinates.
void IMP::atom::CHARMMTopology::add_sequence ( std::string  sequence)

The sequence can contain amino-acid one-letter codes and '/' characters to denote the start of a new segment. The empty string simply adds a new segment that contains no residues.

Exceptions
ValueExceptionif an invalid one-letter code is passed.
Hierarchy IMP::atom::CHARMMTopology::create_hierarchy ( kernel::Model model) const

The hierarchy contains chains, residues and atoms as defined in the topology. Note, however, that none of the generated atoms is given coordinates. Chains are labeled 'A', 'B' etc. Residues are numbered from 1 within each chain.

See Also
add_coordinates.
void IMP::atom::CHARMMTopology::setup_hierarchy ( Hierarchy  hierarchy) const

The hierarchy is modified if necessary so that each residue contains the same set of atoms as defined in the CHARMM topology, and any atoms missing coordinates are assigned them.

This is equivalent to calling add_atom_types(), add_missing_atoms(), remove_charmm_untyped_atoms(), and add_coordinates() in that order.
