Chain(s) and Parameter Area

 

Contacts Energy

 

Sum of the Energies of contacts established among residues belonging to the same protein chain. (See the table of energy values for each contact type)

 

Placing the cursor above this element: pop-up area will show the summary of "Contacts Energy" data for this particular amino acid.
Left mouse click: no action
Right mouse click: on any of the "Contacts Energy" will generate following menu and actions:


Figure below is showing specific position for the row with the "Contacts Energy" data in JPD presentation.

A) A user may select one of 4 sizes for the sliding window (for the size of 5: a value for this parameter is collected over the central residue and other 2 from the each side of the central one, summed and divided by 5). JPD will automatically adjust viewing area for selected parameter.

B) Contacts Energy Table will show a general table with default contact energies used by BLUE STAR STING as well as summation of each particular contact type for selected residue.


C) Interface Contacts Energy - will produce corresponding coloring of the CPK rendering for the interface area of the chain "E"


D) Internal Contacts Energy - will produce corresponding coloring of the CPK rendering for the entire chain "E"


E) Pillars of Contacts Energy - will produce corresponding coloring of the backbone rendering for the entire chain "E"


F) STING it Sliding window of Contacts Energy - will produce corresponding coloring of the CPK rendering for the whole chain "E".
