LigPlot+ is a graphical front-end to the LIGPLOT and DIMPLOT programs. The plots generated by these programs can be interactively edited on screen and then written to a PostScript file for printing or conversion to various image formats. Additionally, you can superpose related LIGPLOTs to highlight similarities and differences between related proteins binding the same/similar ligand, or the same/similar ligand binding to different proteins.
LIGPLOT - automatically generates schematic diagrams of protein-ligand interactions for a given ligand in a PDB file.
DIMPLOT - plots interactions across a selected protein-protein or domain-domain interface.
The first time you run LigPlot+ on your computer, you will need to define several paths and directories so that the program knows where to find things like PDB files, the Het Group Dictionary and the RasMol/PyMOL programs (if you have them). LigPlot+ will detect that it is being run for the first time and will pop up an entry-form, described in the section below, for you to fill in.
i. PDB paths
PDB files are most conveniently identified simply by the 4-character PDB code or identifier. If your system contains one or more locations where PDB files are stored, you can define a "template" path which will allow LigPlot+ to find the relevant PDB file from its 4-character code alone. The files can be gzipped or not.
Alternatively, if you are connected to the internet when you run LigPlot+, the required file can be retrieved by ftp from a given ftp site.
The 4 characters of the PDB code in each template are represented as abcd. These appear in the template within square brackets.
For example, the template
C:/roman/pdbsum/pdb/pdb[abcd].ent
means that, for example, PDB code 1ral would be translated as:
C:/roman/pdbsum/pdb/pdb1ral.ent
Similarly, the ftp template
ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/rcsb/pdb-remediated/data/structures/divided/pdb/[bc]/pdb[abcd].ent.gz
would map to PDB code 1ral as:
ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/rcsb/pdb-remediated/data/structures/divided/pdb/ra/pdb1ral.ent.gz
Note that here the PDB files are stored in subdirectories whose names correspond to the middle part of the PDB code (here shown as "[bc]").
The above ftp address retrieves gzipped PDB files from the PDBe ftp site at the EBI. A full list of possible ftp addresses is given below:
PDBe ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/rcsb/pdb-remediated/data/structures/divided/pdb/[bc]/pdb[abcd].ent.gz
PDBj ftp://ftp.pdbj.org/pub/pdb/data/structures/divided/pdb/[bc]/pdb[abcd].ent.gz
RCSB PDB ftp://ftp.wwpdb.org/pub/pdb/data/structures/divided/pdb/[bc]/pdb[abcd].ent.gz
You can add others.
ii. The Het Group Dictionary
LigPlot+ gets its information about ligand molecules from the Het Group Dictionary. This defines the atom names, connectivities and bond orders of every Het Group in the PDB. You can download a copy of this dictionary from the wwPDB at:
ftp://ftp.wwpdb.org/pub/pdb/data/monomers/components.cif
It is a good idea to download it regularly to always have an up-to-date copy.

Excellent, Naveed, sir.
Excellent work Dr sab please I am waiting for silva database and its uses for phylogenetic analysis of bacterial species
noted dear
Thanku so much sir....... very helpful video♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Good luck
Thank you sir 🙏🙏❤️❤️
All the best
Sir how can we check interaction of proteins with ligands other than its own ligands, mean to say that if the ligand doesn't belong to that protein?
Hello Sir, first of all thank you very much for your informative lecture. I am trying to install LIGPLOT through Gmail and Intitutinal ID but i am not able to install it. Please let me know how should I install it?
Thanks sir
welcome
Sir other its own ligand agr dosra ligand ho oske lei hum use krskte hai plz tne ke elawa question ka b rep kia kare
Hello sir. i wanat to download this software but my institutional Id and password got crashed. Can you assist here ?
Nice
pleasures
Hi sor mera research topic h the role of police in controlling drug abuse is ke synopsis kese leke plz sir
Is the ligplot is free tool...
