Name:
LIGPLOT
Version(s):
4.0
Category:
Molecular Visualization
Author(s)/Vendor(s):
Andrew C Wallace & Roman A Laskowski. 
Program Description:
LIGPLOT is a program that automatically generates schematic 2D
representations of protein-ligand interactions. The input is a
standard PDB file and the output is a colour or black-and-white
PostScript file which gives a simple, at-a-glance representation of
the hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic contacts between protein and
ligand. The program is completely general and can be used to show
other interactions such as helix-helix interactions, protein-DNA
interactions, etc.

For example:

ligplot  6TMN.pdb  CBZ 1 LEU 4 I

Note: In the above command p6tmn.pdb is the 
       pdb file. CBZ 1 and LEU 4 are the residue
       name and number of the ligand. The last entry
       being the chain-ID.
