This software calculates the total normalized energy of a protein structure based on effective statistical potentials. For further information see [1]. * Usage: --------- The software received the following input data: ./effective * Input data: ------------- : file containing a potential energy function. The format is organized in four columns, from left to rigth: . atom type 1 . atom type 2 . distance class . pseudoenergy and it looks like this: 1 5 1 3.6321 1 5 2 3.6321 1 5 3 3.6321 ... ... 1 5 15 0.5460 1 5 16 -0.7935 1 5 17 -0.9982 1 5 18 -0.6269 1 5 19 -0.0449 ... ... 1 5 34 0.7769 1 5 35 0.8159 For further examples, see the directory POTENTIALS/. The file names are coded as follows: "pot__.de" The distance-rage is set to 7.0 Angstroms. : Shielding angle. It specifies the angle at which effective atomic interactions are defined. In principle it can be any value between 0 and 180 degrees. See [1]. : Structure file in pdb format. : Chain identifier. If not '_'. * Output: -------- The program prints the following data to the stdout: "total-energy" "total-contacts" "normalized-energy" * Examples: ---------- >./effective POTENTIALS/pot_090_07.0.de 90 STRUCTURES/1AKZ.pdb A >-251.32880000 2706.000000 -0.092878 >./effective POTENTIALS/pot_180_07.0.de 180 STRUCTURES/135l_3.pdb X >-36.36630000 15818.000000 -0.002299 * Reference: ------------ [1] Ferrada, E. and Melo, F.
