Detailed Description

linear chain of residues

In peptide chain, the residues are ordered from N- to C-terminus. To obtain the n-th residue in the chain, use GetResidueByIndex. Alternatively, the residues may be adressed by their residue number with FindResidue. Residue numbers are unique within a chain. It is however not guaranteed that the residue numbers are in ascending order.

New residues are inserted via one of the editors obtained from EntityHandle::EditXCS() or EntityHandle::EditICS(). To append a residue to the C-terminal end, use EditorBase::AppendResidue, to insert after or before a specific residue, EditorBase::InsertResidueAfter and ditorBase::InsertResidueABefore will do the job, respectively.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ChainHandle (  ) 
ChainHandle ( const impl::ChainImplPtr impl  ) 

Member Function Documentation

void Apply ( EntityVisitor visitor  ) 

Apply visitor.

Parameters:
visitor is the visitor to apply
void AssignSecondaryStructure ( SecStructure  ss,
const ResNum start,
const ResNum end 
)

assign secondary structure to the inclusive residue range start, end

AtomHandle FindAtom ( const ResNum num,
const String atom_name 
) const
ResidueHandle FindResidue ( const ResNum num  )  const

Find residue by number. If the chain does not contain a residue with the given number, an invalid ResidueHandle will be returned.

See also:
ResidueBase::IsValid, FindAtom, EntityHandle::FindResidue
int GetAtomCount (  )  const

Get number of atoms of this chain.

AtomHandleList GetAtomList (  )  const

Retrieve atoms of this chain as a list.

The atoms are ordered by atom number in ascending order. If you only want to determine the number of atoms, use the dedicated ChainHandle::GetAtomCount

int GetBondCount (  )  const

Get number of all inclusive bonds of this chain.

Warning:
For a bond between two different chains, it is not clearly defined to which chain it belongs. Therefore, this method will only return the number of bonds where both bonded atoms are within the same chain (all inclusive bonds).
geom::AlignedCuboid GetBounds (  )  const
geom::Vec3 GetCenterOfAtoms (  )  const

Get entity's center of atoms (not mass weighted).

Returns the center of all the atoms in an entity. This is similar to GetCenterOfMass(), but the atoms are not mass weighted

geom::Vec3 GetCenterOfMass (  )  const

Get entity's center of mass (mass weighted).

EntityHandle GetEntity (  )  const

Get parent entity.

ChainHandle GetHandle (  )  const

get this handle

Useful for duck-typing in Python and in templates

Real GetMass (  )  const

Get entity's mass.

ResidueHandle GetNext ( const ResidueHandle rh  ) 
ResidueHandle GetPrev ( const ResidueHandle rh  ) 

Get residue before the given residue.

A previous residue is returned regardless whether the residues are connected by a bond.

ResidueHandle GetResidueByIndex ( int  index  )  const

Get residue by index.

Indices are start at zero

int GetResidueCount (  )  const

Get number of residues of this chain.

See also:
EntityHandle::GetResidueCount()
ResidueHandleList GetResidueList (  )  const

Get residues of this chain as a list.

The residues are ordered by residue number in ascending order. If you only want to determine the number of residues, use the dedicated ChainHandle::GetResidueCount

bool InSequence (  )  const

whether the residues form an ordered sequence with respect to their reside numbers.

bool operator!= ( const ChainHandle ref  )  const
bool operator== ( const ChainHandle ref  )  const
EntityView Select ( const String query_string,
QueryFlags  flags = 0 
) const

return view based on query String.

See also:
Query
EntityView Select ( const Query q,
QueryFlags  flags = 0 
) const

return view based on a query object

See also:
Query
void SetInSequence ( const int  index  ) 

checks whether res breaks the in sequence property and updates it accordingly
