Hi,
VMD uses STRIDE to compute secondary structure assignments.
Other programs like PyMol simply read the secondary structure assginment
in a PDB (I think we've got example scripts for that in VMD also in the
script library), however that approach doesn't work in the general case
for molecular dynamics simulations, which is what VMD was intended for.
There are few cases where STRIDE will either fail to compute a secondary
structure, and it sounds like yours is one such case. Do you get errors
in your VMD text console at the point when it prints STRIDE citation
information?
Best,
John Stone
