CAVENV (CCP4: Supported Program)NAMEcavenv - Calculates cavities in macromolecular structuresSYNOPSIScavenv xyzin foo_in.pdb mapout foo_out.map[Keyworded input] DESCRIPTIONCAVENV produces a map from an input model structure, which is designed to help visualise cavities in the protein. By default, the program produces a "cavity" map in which each grid point is given a value equal to the distance of the closest atom, minus its Van der Waals radius, up to a maximum of <maxrad> (maximal probe radius to be tested). Thus the grid values are zero within the Van der Waals envelope of the protein. Outside this envelope, the value represents radius of the largest probe that access that grid point. In the middle of solvent regions, the grid value is that of the largest probe considered <maxrad>.If one of the keywords ENVPROTEIN, ENVNCS or ENVSOLVENT is given, then a mask is produced instead of the cavity map. INPUT AND OUTPUT FILESThe following input and output files are used by the program:Input Files:
Output Files:
KEYWORDED INPUTTITLE <title string>Job title. Included in MAPOUT header.Default is "From CAVENV". RADMAX <maxrad>Maximum probe radius to be tested in Angstrom.Default is 3.0 RANGE <nfirst> <nlast>Residue range of atoms to be included from XYZIN. This applies to all chains.Default range is 1 to 10000. EXCLUDE <atomname>Atoms to be excluded from XYZIN, e.g. "EXCLUDE NZ". Several EXCLUDE cards may be given (up to a maximum number which is currently 150).CELL <a> <b> <c> [ <alpha> <beta> <gamma> ]Input cell parameters explicitly. If omitted, program will try to obtain cell parameters from XYZIN.SYMM [<spacegroup number> | <spacegroup name> | <symmetry operations> ]Input spacegroup explicitly. If omitted, program will try to obtain spacegroup from XYZIN.AXIS <fast axis> <medium axis> <slow axis>Specify the axis order for the output map, where each axis is one of "X", "Y" or "Z".Default is "AXIS X Y Z". GRID <nx> <ny> <nz>Number of sampling divisions along whole cell edges. XYZLIM <xmin> <xmax> <ymin> <ymax> <zmin> <zmax>Range of unit cell to be included in output map.
<xmin> <xmax> etc. are minimum and maximum grid numbers
along each cell edge. ENVPROTEINInstead of the default cavity map, MAPOUT will contain a protein mask with 1's within the protein region and 0's in the solvent region. The solvent region is defined as the volume accessible by a probe of radius <maxrad> (see RADMAX keyword).ENVNCS <numncs>As ENVPROTEIN, but masks will be generated for <numncs> NCS-related molecules. This card should be followed by 3 x <numncs> records specifying the NCS operators. Each record consists of 3 elements of the rotation matrix and one element of the translation. The first group of three records will usually represent the identity:1.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 1.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 1.0 0.0 ENVSOLVENTInstead of the default cavity map, MAPOUT will contain a solvent mask with 1's within the solvent region and 0's in the protein region. The solvent region is defined as the volume accessible by a probe of radius <maxrad> (see RADMAX keyword).ENDEnd of the keyword listEXAMPLESRunnable examples using rnase data

The program is currently dimensioned to hold a maximal map size of 3375000 (150*150*150) grid points. If this is too large for your system, then you need to change the value of NMAP in 1 PARAMETER statement in the source code, and recompile.SEE ALSOareaimol - Analyse solvent accessible areasREFERENCES
