Constructor & Destructor Documentation

BALL::Peptides::AminoAcidDescriptor::AminoAcidDescriptor

(

)

Default constructor.

BALL::Peptides::AminoAcidDescriptor::AminoAcidDescriptor	(	const String &	type,
		const Angle &	phi = Angle(-47., false),
		const Angle &	psi = Angle(-58., false),
		const Angle &	omega = Angle(180., false)
	)

Detailed constructor. Here, type is considered to be either a three - letter or a one letter string for the amino acid type, phi is the torsion angle phi, psi is the psi torsion angle and omega is the angle of the peptide bond. By default, a standard alpha-helical geometry is constructed.
