RNA structures (DSSR) / Re: plotting the helical axis along curved helices

Thanks, Xiang-Jun!

Do you have any idea of how to easily find the axis of each 2-bp segment of a helix?

Also, I think an easier solution for A-form helix is to do a shift of the origin in the plane of the reference frame so that the shifted origin is where the axis passes through the plane.

RNA structures (DSSR) / plotting the helical axis along curved helices

Hi Xiang-Jun,

I tried to extract the coordinates of the origin points of the base-pair reference frame from the json file. It appears working for DNA structures; but for RNA, the points form a spiral around the helical axis (see attached image), as we would expect due to the differences of how the axis passes through the base-pairs in B- and A-form helices.

Thanks,

Di

RNA structures (DSSR) / running DSSR in windows

When I'm trying to run DSSR in windows 7, an error message popped out saying "The program can't start because msys-2.0.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."
How can I deal with it?
Thanks in advance.
