except that haddock expects the new PDB format for nucleotides which has three letter notations like ADE, GUA, CYT, THY.
Well, if that's indeed the case, HADDOCK is
not using the new PDB format as documented in "
Remediation of the protein data bank archive". Specifically, DNA residues now should be named DA, DC, DG, and DT, as shown in an example (
355d) below:
ATOM 26 C2' DG A 2 22.447 27.195 19.590 1.00 10.31 C
ATOM 27 C1' DG A 2 21.722 26.527 20.744 1.00 8.31 C
ATOM 28 N9 DG A 2 20.293 26.737 20.884 1.00 6.86 N
ATOM 29 C8 DG A 2 19.536 27.799 20.464 1.00 7.02 C
3DNA generated nucleic acid structures (including
fiber) do not follow
strictly the PDB guideline, which seems having not caused any practical problems. As a rule, I do not tailor core 3DNA to any specific third-party tool. For background information, please see my blog post "
PDB format, how many variants are there?".
That said, you may easily write up a format-converting script to fit your needs. In 3DNA v2.1beta, the
perl_scripts/ directory contains a
simple script named
x3dna2charmm_pdb that converts DNA residue names from one-letter to three. It is enclosed below for reference, and you are welcome to customize it (especially the
two lines in red).
Let us know how it goes.
