Bio Structural Biology Structure Modification

Category: Science & Research  ·  Sub-category: biology-medicine  ·  Last updated:
Modifies protein structures in place with Biopython Bio.PDB - transforms coordinates, strips waters/heteroatoms, overloads the B-factor column, renumbers, and builds entities. Use when applying a rotation matrix and needing to know whether it is row-convention (Entity.transform, Superimposer) or column-convention (REMARK 350 / _pdbx_struct_oper_list assembly operators) so geometry is not silently mirrored; when overloading B-factors with pLDDT/conservation for coloring and needing to preserve the destroyed originals; when stripping solvent by HETFLAG (r.id[0]) rather than residue name so catalytic metals and cofactors survive; and when building or copying entities through StructureBuilder/Select without breaking SMCRA parent-child links or the (hetflag, resseq, icode) id tuple. Keywords transform, rotation matrix, occupancy, assembly operators.

What this skill does

Bio Structural Biology Structure Modification is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the biology-medicine sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/bio-structural-biology-structure-modification/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

Frequently asked questions

How do I install the Bio Structural Biology Structure Modification Claude Code skill?
Install via the ClaudSkills desktop app (one click) or copy SKILL.md from the source repository to ~/.claude/skills/bio-structural-biology-structure-modification/SKILL.md and restart Claude Code. Both flows are detailed at claudskills.com/install/.
What does the Bio Structural Biology Structure Modification skill do?
Modifies protein structures in place with Biopython Bio.PDB - transforms coordinates, strips waters/heteroatoms, overloads the B-factor column, renumbers, and builds entities. Use when applying a rotation matrix and needing to know whether it is row-convention (Entity.transform, Superimposer) or column-convention (REMARK 350 / _pdbx_struct_oper_list assembly operators) so geometry is not silently mirrored; when overloading B-factors with pLDDT/conservation for coloring and needing to preserve the destroyed originals; when stripping solvent by HETFLAG (r.id[0]) rather than residue name so catalytic metals and cofactors survive; and when building or copying entities through StructureBuilder/Select without breaking SMCRA parent-child links or the (hetflag, resseq, icode) id tuple. Keywords transform, rotation matrix, occupancy, assembly operators.
Is this skill free to install?
Yes. ClaudSkills is an open registry — every skill keeps its source repository's license, and manual install via copy is free. ClaudSkills Pro ($9/mo, $79/yr, or $149 one-time) adds one-click install via the desktop app and a multi-signal Quality Score.
When should I use the Bio Structural Biology Structure Modification skill?
Use Bio Structural Biology Structure Modification when your Claude Code task falls under the Science & Research category — specifically in the biology medicine area. Claude Code auto-discovers installed skills and invokes the right one based on the task description, so you can also ask Claude directly (e.g. "use Bio Structural Biology Structure Modification" or describe the task and let Claude pick). Browse related skills at /category/science/.
What is a Claude Code skill and how does the Bio Structural Biology Structure Modification skill fit in?
A Claude Code skill is a SKILL.md file that lives under ~/.claude/skills/<name>/ and tells the Claude Code CLI agent how to perform a specific task (instructions, prompts, allowed tools). Skills are auto-discovered at session start. Bio Structural Biology Structure Modification is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the Science & Research category.
