pdb_keepcoord — ok so this is the manual page for pdb_keepcoord 2.5.1, bestie 💖

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

Heads up, queen: pdb_keepcoord File not found or not readable: '--help'

Lowkey the whole job of this tool is: Removes all non-coordinate records from the file. That's it, that's the vibe. It's giving declutter era 🧹✨

It keeps only these record types:

• MODEL
• ENDMDL
• END
• ATOM
• HETATM
• CONECT

Everything else? Gone. Not me evicting the non-coordinate records fr fr 💅

🌸 Usage

python pdb_keepcoord.py <pdb file>

🦋 Example

python pdb_keepcoord.py 1CTF.pdb

So real talk about where this lil guy comes from: this program is part of the pdb-tools suite of utilities and should not be distributed isolatedly. The pdb-tools were created to quickly manipulate PDB files using the terminal, and they can be used sequentially, with one tool streaming data to another — like a little pipeline slay 🌈🔗

They are based on old FORTRAN77 code that was taking too much effort to maintain and compile. RIP. 🪦😭 iconic ancestors honestly
