mmCIF File Format¶

Loading mmCIF Files¶

LoadMMCIF(filename, fault_tolerant=None, calpha_only=None, profile='DEFAULT', remote=False, seqres=False, info=False)¶

Load a mmCIF file and return one or more entities. Several options allow to customize the exact behaviour of the mmCIF import. For more information on these options, see IO Profiles for entity importer.

Residues are flagged as ligand if they are mentioned in a HET record.

Parameters:	fault_tolerant – Enable/disable fault-tolerant import. If set, overrides the value of IOProfile.fault_tolerant. remote – If set to True, the method tries to load the pdb from the remote pdb repository www.pdb.org. The filename is then interpreted as the pdb id. seqres – Whether to read SEQRES records. If True, a SequenceList object is returned as the second item. The sequences in the list are named according to the mmCIF chain name. This feature requires a default compound library to be defined and accessible via GetDefaultLib() or an empty list is returned. info – Whether to return an info container with the other output. If True, a MMCifInfo object is returned as last item.
Return type:	EntityHandle (or tuple if seqres or info are True).
Raises:	IOException if the import fails due to an erroneous or non-existent file.

Categories Available¶

The following categories of a mmCIF file are considered by the reader:

• atom_site: Used to build the EntityHandle
• entity: Involved in setting ChainType of chains
• entity_poly: Involved in setting ChainType of chains
• citation: Goes into MMCifInfoCitation
• citation_author: Goes into MMCifInfoCitation
• exptl: Goes into MMCifInfo as method.
• refine: Goes into MMCifInfo as resolution, r_free and r_work.
• pdbx_struct_assembly: Used for MMCifInfoBioUnit.
• pdbx_struct_assembly_gen: Used for MMCifInfoBioUnit.
• pdbx_struct_oper_list: Used for MMCifInfoBioUnit.
• struct: Details about a structure, stored in MMCifInfoStructDetails.
• struct_conf: Stores secondary structure information (practically helices) in the EntityHandle
• struct_sheet_range: Stores secondary structure information for sheets in the EntityHandle
• pdbx_database_PDB_obs_spr: Verbose information on obsoleted/ superseded entries, stored in MMCifInfoObsolete
• struct_ref stored in MMCifInfoStructRef
• struct_ref_seq stored in MMCifInfoStructRefSeqDif
• struct_ref_seq_dif stored in MMCifInfoStructRefDif
• database_pdb_rev (mmCIF dictionary version < 5) stored in MMCifInfoRevisions
• pdbx_audit_revision_history and pdbx_audit_revision_details (mmCIF dictionary version >= 5) used to fill MMCifInfoRevisions
• pdbx_entity_branch and pdbx_entity_branch_link used for MMCifInfoEntityBranchLink, a list of links is available by GetEntityBranchLinks() and GetEntityBranchByChain()

Notes:

• Structures in mmCIF format can have two chain names. The “new” chain name extracted from atom_site.label_asym_id is used to name the chains in the EntityHandle. The “old” (author provided) chain name is extracted from atom_site.auth_asym_id for the first atom of the chain. It is added as string property named “pdb_auth_chain_name” to the ChainHandle. The mapping is also stored in MMCifInfo as GetMMCifPDBChainTr() and GetPDBMMCifChainTr() if SEQRES records are read in LoadMMCIF() and a non-empty SEQRES record exists for that chain (this should exclude ligands and water).
• Molecular entities in mmCIF are identified by an entity.id. Each chain is mapped to an ID in MMCifInfo as GetMMCifEntityIdTr().

PDBize(asu, seqres=None, min_polymer_size=None, transformation=False, peptide_min_size=10, nucleicacid_min_size=10, saccharide_min_size=10)¶

Returns the biological assembly (bio unit) for an entity. The new entity created is well suited to be saved as a PDB file. Therefore the function tries to meet the requirements of single-character chain names. The following measures are taken.

• All ligands are put into one chain (_)
• Water is put into one chain (-)
• Each polymer gets its own chain, named A-Z 0-9 a-z.
• The description of non-polymer chains will be put into a generic string property called description on the residue level.
• Ligands that resemble a polymer but have less than min_polymer_size / peptide_min_size / nucleicacid_min_size / saccharide_min_size residues are assigned the same numeric residue number. The residues are distinguished by insertion code.
• Sometimes bio units exceed the coordinate system storable in a PDB file. In that case, the box around the entity will be aligned to the lower left corner of the coordinate system.

Since this function is at the moment mainly used to create biounits from mmCIF files to be saved as PDBs, the function assumes that the ChainType properties are set correctly.

Parameters:

asu (EntityHandle) – Asymmetric unit to work on. Should be created from a mmCIF file. seqres (SequenceList) – If set to a valid sequence list, the length of the seqres records will be used to determine if a certain chain has the minimally required length. min_polymer_size (int) – The minimal number of residues a polymer needs to get its own chain. Everything below that number will be sorted into the ligand chain. Overrides peptide_min_size, nucleicacid_min_size and saccharide_min_size if set to a value different than None. transformation (bool) – If set, return the transformation matrix used to move the bounding box of the bio unit to the lower left corner. peptide_min_size (int) – Minimal size to get an individual chain for a polypeptide. Is overridden by min_polymer_size. nucleicacid_min_size (int) – Minimal size to get an individual chain for a polynucleotide. Is overridden by min_polymer_size. saccharide_min_size (int) – Minimal size to get an individual chain for an oligosaccharide or polysaccharide. Is overridden by min_polymer_size.
