Adaptive tempering : Secondary structure vs. temperature diagrams

Start from a file containing stride assignments and corresponding temperatures (ā€œCā€ means un-assigned state) :

The program that follows calculates a matrix containing the fraction of helicity for each residue (horizontal axis) as a function of temperature (vertical axis). You'll have to modify this for different number or types of secondary structure states.

Fraction helical per residue vs. temperature


Running this program will give a matrix that will look something like this :

which when plotted will look like this :


 Fraction helical per residue as a function of temperature





Use the program that follows to calculate the distribution of : [horizontal axis : fraction of frames (of the trajectory) with a given number of residues in a helical conformation (0 ā†’ total number of residues)] vs [Vertical axis : Temperature]. As a bonus you'll also get the cumulative helicity vs temperature for a 1D plot.

Percentage of residues in helical conformations vs. temperature


Running the program gives something like this :
