The DSSP program was designed by Wolfgang Kabsch and Chris Sander to standardize secondary structure assignment.[1] DSSP is a database of secondary structure assignments (and much more) for all protein entries in the Protein Data Bank (PDB). DSSP is also the program that calculates DSSP entries from PDB entries.
The DSSP program defines secondary structure, geometrical features and solvent exposure of proteins, given atomic coordinates in Protein Data Bank format. The program does NOT PREDICT protein structure.
Contents
The DSSP code
H = alpha helix B = residue in isolated beta-bridge E = extended strand, participates in beta ladder G = 3-helix (3/10 helix) I = 5 helix (pi helix) T = hydrogen bonded turn S = bend
A blank in the DSSP secondary structure determination stands for loop or irregular. Loops and irregular elements are often, very incorrectly, called "random coil" or "coil". Many programs, including the PDBFINDER, replace this blank by a C (doing undue justice to the historical artefactual naming of loops and irregular stretches) because one never knows if a blank means loop or no-output, or something-went-wrong.
Usage
Note: See Description of the DSSP program for details.
dssp [-na] [-v] pdb_file [dssp_file] dssp [-na] [-v] -- [dssp_file] dssp [-h] [-?] [-V]
Command line options
-na- Disables the calculation of accessible surface.
-c- Classic (pre-July 1995) format.
-v- Verbose.
--- Read from standard input.
-h -?- Prints a help message.
-l- Prints the license information.
-V- Prints version, as in first line of the output.
