Lesson 11 - Creating Small Structure

</h2>

<hr size="3">


In this lesson you will learn how to create a short alpha helix. The
structure created using the method described here may be saved as any
other structure.
<br><br>

Before starting with this lesson, read something about the command
<a href="../commands/cre.html">
CREATE
</a>
.
<br><br>



Step 1 - start garlic (if not started already):
<br><br>


<font color=RED>

garlic
<br><br>

</font>


Step 2 - prepare a short sequence (polyalanine, eight residues):
<br><br>


<font color=RED>

seq = ala ala ala ala ala ala ala ala
<br><br>

</font>


Step 3 - initialize the secondary structure (let's play with an alpha helix):
<br><br>


<font color=RED>

str = hhhh hhhh
<br><br>

</font>


Step 4 - create a short alpha helix:
<br><br>


<font color=RED>

create
<br><br>

</font>


Step 5 - save your structure:
<br><br>


<font color=RED>

save test.pdb
<br><br>

</font>


Step 6 - discard the structure:
<br><br>


<font color=RED>

dis all
<br><br>

</font>


That's all!
