hi,
i run `snap --get-hbonds -i=1FFK.pdb -o=1.snap` hoping to figure out interactions between the a.a and RNA.
log reported as below:
Processing file '1FFK.pdb' [1FFK]
Time used: 00:00:00:03
But I cannot get my output,1.snap,why?There is no hbonds within this structure?

Hi,
I've tried SNAP on 1ffk (http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/explore/explore.do?structureId=1ffk) and did not find any H-bonds between proteins and RNA, as you reported. However, trying SNAP on 1s72 (http://) reports 1749 H-bonds. So I guess it must be due to atomic coordinates issue with 1ffk. You may want to dig into 1ffk deeper to understand why, but I believe SNAP is doing its job as designed.
Hope this help.

Did you know that you could also use DSSR with JSON output to easily parse H-bonds?
x3dna-dssr -i=1oct.pdb --json | jq '.hbonds[] | select(.residue_pair == "nt:aa")'
The underlying algorithm for H-bond detection is the same for DSSR and SNAP, with the default text output tailored to nt:nt and nt:aa respectively. With the DSSR --json option, 'ALL' H-bonds are reported. In the near future, the --json will be available to SNAP as well.

As a follow-up, I've checked the coordinates file 1ffk.pdb. As shown below, only CA atoms are present for the protein components. That explains why no H-honds are detected by SNAP at the protein-RNA interface.

Thank you so much!
I will try another rRNA structure!
