dnaMD Module

dnaMD is written in Python and it is also available as Python module. It can be used in Python scripting for fast and flexible analysis of do_x3dna data.

dnaMD module contain a dnaMD.DNA class and other functions.

To read and set local helical radius of both strand

DNA.set_base_step_parameters(filename, bp_step)
