Description Usage Arguments Value References Examples

Retrieves entries of the PDB database with the experimentally solved 3D structure of members of the specified Rfam family, with correspondances between residues of the PDB structure and positions in the covariance model of the Rfam family. If a filename is provided, the list of PDB entries will be saved to the path specified through filename as a tab-delimited file.

1	rfamPDBMapping(rfamFamily, filename=NULL)

`rfamFamily`	string with an Rfam family accession or ID for which the matching PDB entries should be retrieved.
`filename`	string indicating a path to which the retrieved PDB entries should be written as a tab-delimited file. In the default behaviour, filename=NULL, and no file will be written. Instead, the PDB entries will just be returned as a data frame.

A data frame with PDB entries with experimentally solved 3D structures of members of the specified Rfam family, as well as correspondances between residues of the PDB structures and positions of the covariance model of the Rfam family. The data frame contains the following columns:

`Rfam accession`	Rfam accession of the Rfam family
`PDB ID`	ID of the PDB entry with a 3D structure of a member of the Rfam family
`Chain`	ID of the chain of the PDB entry that contains the coordinates for the 3D structure of a member of the Rfam family
`PDB start residue`	First residue of the 3D structure that can be matched to the sequence of a member of the Rfam family
`PDB end residue`	Last residue of the 3D structure that can be matched to the sequence of a member of the Rfam family
`CM start position`	First position of the covariance model of the Rfam family that can be matched to the 3D structure
`CM end position`	Last position of the covariance model of the Rfam family that can be matched to the 3D structure
`eValue`	Expectation value for the alignment of the sequence of the 3D structure to the Rfam family
`Bit score`	Bit score for the alignment of the sequence of the 3D structure to the Rfam family
