ptraj is able to process trajectories of DNA simulations.
>- the average backbone torsions
you could either determine an average pdb structure of DNA for a certain time interval of the simulation using the "average" command of ptraj and measure the torsions yourself or get a list of torsion angles through the trajectory using the "dihedral" command of ptraj and plot the torsions on mgrace
>- the average base pair parameters
define donor / acceptor for base pairs in ptraj input
and run ptraj through the trajectory to determine h-bond occupancies between the base pairs..
> - the average pair step parameters
I guess i did not quite understand this one..could you give more details on what you are trying to accomplish here?
>- the average puckers
use the "pucker" function in ptraj input and run ptraj through the trajectory.
i.e., your pucker could be for C1' C2' C3' C4' forming a pseudodihedral angle across from O4' on each sugar ring.
hope this help..
