htmd.builder.ionize module

htmd.builder.ionize.ionize(mol, netcharge, nwater, neutralize=True, saltconc=None, cation=None, anion=None, ff=None)

htmd.builder.ionize.ionizePlace(mol, anion_resname, cation_resname, anion_name, cation_name, nanion, ncation, dfrom=5, dbetween=5, segname=None)

Place a given number of negative and positive ions in the solvent.

Replaces water molecules al long as they respect the given distance criteria.

Parameters:

• mol (Molecule object) – The Molecule object

• anion_resname (str) – Resname of the added anions

• cation_resname (str) – Resname of the added cations

• anion_name (str) – Name of the added anions

• cation_name (str) – Name of the added cations

• nanion (int) – Number of anions to add

• ncation (int) – Number of cations to add

• dfrom (float) – Min distance of ions from molecule

• dbetween (float) – Min distance between ions

• segname (str) – Segment name to add

Returns:

mol – The molecule with the ions added

Return type:

Molecule object
