takes a time directory of PDB files and shows stacking percentage as a function of time. This is great for packages like AMBER. This program was first used to study RNA tetramers and has been used also to study compaction of duplex nucleic acids
execution is as simple as it gets:
perl pdb_stacking.pland then the script scans all PDB files in your directory. The PDB files should be named like 1701ns.pdb. The Perl script will automatically create stacking plots for you, so you can see how all of the stacking variables, defined here vary over time. Examples can be found in that link.
