check_backbone_continuity
#
- biotite.structure.check_backbone_continuity(array, min_len=1.2, max_len=1.8)[source]#
Check if the (peptide or phosphate) backbone atoms have non-reasonable distance to the next atom.
A large or very small distance is a very strong clue, that there is no bond between those atoms, therefore the chain is discontinued.
- Parameters:
- arrayAtomArray
The array to be checked.
- min_len, max_lenfloat, optional
The interval in which the atom-atom distance is evaluated as bond.
- Returns:
- discontinuityndarray, dtype=int
Contains the indices of atoms after a discontinuity.
