NAME

       pdb_selresname - manual page for pdb_selresname 2.5.1

DESCRIPTION

       pdb_selresname Residue name is invalid: '-HELP'

       Selects all residues matching the given name in the PDB file.

       Residues names are matched *without* taking into consideration spaces.

   Usage:
              python pdb_selresname.py -<option> <pdb file>

   Example:
       python pdb_selresname.py -ALA 1CTF.pdb
              # keeps only Alanines

       python pdb_selresname.py -ASP,GLU 1CTF.pdb
              # keeps (-) charged residues

       This  program  is part of the `pdb-tools` suite of utilities and should not be distributed
       isolatedly. The `pdb-tools` were  created  to  quickly  manipulate  PDB  files  using  the
       terminal,  and can be used sequentially, with one tool streaming data to another. They are
       based on old FORTRAN77 code that was taking too much effort to maintain and compile. RIP.
