RMSD

Calculate the RMSD and maximum atomic displacement between a reference structure and a set of conformers. The set of atoms to superpose can be defined via an ASL expression. The following ASL expression has a special meaning:

  • all = all atoms in the reference and comparison structures
Note that the number of atoms used in the comparison has to be identical. This is usually not a problem with conformers of course but can be problematic when comparing different molecules and using the ASL expression 'all'.
