        TorsionAngles

Describes a collection of phi, psi and omega backbone torsion angles.

It is assumed that the supplied values are either None, or fitting into the range of [-180, +180] for AngleUnites.Degrees and [0, 2pi] for Radians.

Method Details

__init__(self, phi, psi, omega, units=Degrees)
(Constructor)

source code 

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see help(type(x)) for signature

Parameters:
  • phi (float) - phi angle value in units
  • psi (float) - psi angle value in units
  • omega (float) - omega angle value in units
  • units (csb.core.EnumItem) - any of AngleUnits's enum members
Raises:
  • ValueError - on invalid/unknown units
Overrides: object.__init__
(inherited documentation)

__repr__(self)
(Representation operator)

source code 

repr(x)

Overrides: object.__repr__
(inherited documentation)

copy(self)

source code 
Returns:
a deep copy of self

deg(angle)
Static Method

source code 

Convert a torsion angle value, expressed in radians, to degrees. Negative angles are not accepted, it is assumed that negative torsion angles have been converted to their ang+2pi counterparts beforehand.

Return the calculated value in the range of [-180, +180] degrees.

rad(angle)
Static Method

source code 

Convert a torsion angle value, expressed in degrees, to radians. Negative angles are converted to their positive counterparts: rad(ang + 360deg).

Return the calculated value in the range of [0, 2pi] radians.

to_degrees(self)

source code 

Set angle measurement units to degrees. Convert the angles in this TorsionAngles instance to degrees.

to_radians(self)

source code 

Set angle measurement units to radians. Convert the angles in this TorsionAngles instance to radians.
