parse-mmcif v0.0.1

parse-mmcif

A small utility for parsing MMCIF files into useable JSON.

Getting Started

npm install --save parse-pdb

const parseMmcif = require('parse-mmcif');
const { readFileSync } = require('fs');

const pdbString = readFileSync('./3aid.cif', 'utf8');

const parsed = parsePdb(pdbString);

console.log(parsed.atoms);

JSON Format

The output json is an object containing arrays of each structure keyed on record name, according to the pdb spec.

  atoms:
    type: string
    id: integer
    type_symbol: string
    label_atom_id: string
    label_alt_id: string
    label_comp_id: string
    label_asym_id: string
    label_entity_id: integer
    label_seq_id: integer
    pdbx_PDB_ins_code: string
    Cartn_x: float
    x: -float
    Cartn_y: float
    y: float
    Cartn_z: float
    z: float
    occupancy: integer
    B_iso_or_equiv: float
    pdbx_formal_charge: string
    auth_seq_id: integer
    auth_comp_id: string
    auth_asym_id: string
    auth_atom_id: string
    pdbx_PDB_model_num: integer

Upcoming

I plan to add support for residues, chains, and anything else someone might need. Pull requests welcome!
