Converter between PDB or mmCIF and MMTF I'd like to test MMTF, a new format for storing biomolecular structures which is promoted by RCSB as a more compact alternative to mmCIF and PDB.

From MMTF FAQ:


  
  How do I convert a PDBx/mmCIF file to an MMTF file?
  
  The BioJava library contains methods to read and write PDBx/mmCIF files and MMTF files.
  


Can I do such a conversion, ideally from command line, but without writing my own Java program?
I wrote a very quick and dirty script to handle conversion between file types using BioJava.

Download the jar file here

To run: java -jar BioUtils.jar $FILE $TYPE

where \$FILE is a PDB or mmCIF file you'd like to convert and \$TYPE is the format of the output file [PDB, CIF, MMTF].
