Hi, I installed Molecular Dynamics Viewer in ChimeraX but I am not able to use it, . I use it successfully in Chimera (no X). But in ChimeraX. Can you please help me?

Regarding the UNDO issue raised by Luca
by Boaz Shaanan 13 Dec '19

13 Dec '19

Hi, Is not possible to install an automatic 'save session' at intervals determined by the user just as done in an MS word session? This at least may rescue the last operations. Following my own Chimera 'disasters' of this kind, I actually save session quite frequently when it becomes heavily loaded, particularly prior to a major new operation. My 2p. Happy and warm Thanksgiving.

At the moment I am using just distance restraints formatted like in the Chimera documentation (res1 res2 dist stdev). This file only contains crosslinking data. Is there a way to also include secondary structure restraints, that can serve as additional information during homology modelling? Or can I provide some were another file including this information separate from the crosslink information?

Export of small molecule in ball-and-stick form to VRML
by Bickel, Aaron 13 Dec '19

13 Dec '19

Hi, I have successfully used Chimera many times to export 3D-printable STL files from small and large molecules. However, when I try to export a ball-and-stick small molecule scene to a file type with color information to print in color (such as X3D, OBJ, or VRML) the resulting file only has the sticks shown and none of the balls. This seems to be replicated across any molecule that I try to export. In general my process is to import a PDB file, visualize as ball and stick through the Actions menu, and then use the Model Panel Attributes menu to adjust the thickness of the balls and sticks to ensure a strong physical structure. Is there an additional step I am missing to export as VRML/X3D/OBJ? Thank you, Aaron

Volume Eraser
by Guo, Wangbiao 12 Dec '19

12 Dec '19

Dear all: I use the chimera (chimera-alpha-mac64) and input the room temperature FIB data (.mrc file), which is a huge algae cell (see below). I want to delete some map area, and used the Volume Eraser. But it can not delete but increase map. Is there any one knows how to fix it? I attached my screen record.

selection of specific bonds
by Damien Larivière 12 Dec '19

12 Dec '19

Dear All, My question is naive but I have difficulties to figure out how to do it with Chimera. I would like to select specifically the group of two atoms (C and O) formed in a carbonyl bond C=O for all, say, GLU residues of a protein. Is there a way, via a command line, to do it? Thanks for your help on this. Damien

Conference Announcement: Molecular Modeling Workshop, Feb 17-19, 2020 in Erlangen, Germany
by Harald Lanig 11 Dec '19

11 Dec '19

Dear list subscribers, we are very delighted to announce this year’s “34th Molecular Modelling Workshop (MMWS)” (http://mmws2020.mgms-ds.de) that takes place on Monday 17th to Wednesday 19th February 2020 at the Friedrich-Alexander-University in Erlangen, Germany. The MMWS has a long history of giving young scientists (especially graduate students) the opportunity to present their work and dive into discussions with each other and the "older experts" of the field to gain valuable feedback from academic as well as industrial colleagues. Oral and poster contributions are welcome from all areas of molecular modelling – from the life sciences, computational biology and chemistry, cheminformatics, to materials sciences. Starting with the scientific program on Monday after lunch should allow to avoid travelling on weekend keeping the expenses at a minimum. Once again the location changed - back to the roots we are now back again in the Organic Chemistry building at Henkestrasse 42. A hearty workshop dinner and a traditional joint evening in Erlangen’s Steinbach-Bräu brewery complement the scientific program. The workshop is organised by the German Section of the Molecular Graphics and Modelling Society (MGMS-DS e.V.). ####### Pre-conference Schrödinger workshop ####### For the third time at our Molecular Modeling Workshop, Schrödinger is offering a pre-conference workshop entiteled "Structure-based Drug Design using the Schrödinger Suite". If you are interested in participating at the software session, please checkmark the corresponding field upon filling the registration form. Please note that this event is taking place at the CCC in Naegelsbachstrasse 25. ####### Plenary Speakers ####### We are very happy to announce that five outstanding researchers accepted our invitation to present a plenary lecture at the Modeling workshop: Petra Imhof, Berlin “Recognition and specificity in protein-DNA interactions - insight from molecular simulations” Pavel Jungwirth, Prague "Electrons in Liquid Ammonia and in Water: From Blue Electrolytes to Bronze Colored Metallic Solutions" Barbara Kirchner, Bonn "Insights into ionic and molecular liquids and their interfaces from computational chemistry" Charles Laughton, Nottingham "Enhancing conformational sampling with machine learning" Birgit Strodel, Jülich "Modelling peptide aggregation influenced by in vivo conditions" ####### Poster and Lecture Awards ####### As in the past years, there will be two poster awards of EUR 100 each and three lecture awards for the best contributed oral presentations: 1st winner: Travel bursary to attend the Young Modeller's Forum in London, UK, plus a speaker slot option at YMF (travel expenses are reimbursed up to EUR 500) 2nd winner: EUR 200 travel expenses reimbursement 3rd winner: EUR 100 travel expenses reimbursement Only undergraduate and graduate research students qualify for the poster and lecture awards. ####### Registration and poster/talk submission ####### Submit talks and/or poster titles via the registration form accessible on the workshop website https://mmws2020.mgms-ds.de/index.php?m=register The deadline for all submissions is January 24th, 2020. ####### General information ####### Website http://mmws2020.mgms-ds.de will provide all necessary information about the meeting. We are looking forward to meeting you in Erlangen! - Christof Jäger, Scientific Committee Workshop Organisation 2020 - Harald Lanig, Chairman of the MGMS-DS e.V.

Buenas tardes, Estoy intentando descargar vuestro programa y me es imposible porque cuando acepto vuestras condiciones me salta un mensaje que dice: “Gracias por considerar la quimera UCSF. Por favor, háganos saber qué parte del acuerdo de licencia UCSF Quimera que encontró inaceptable.” No entiendo porqué sucede esto si yo estoy aceptando las condiciones y necesito urgentemente el programa. Por favor, necesito su ayuda. Gracias Enviado desde Correo para Windows 10

Re: [Chimera-users] transposing a pdb structure ("copy & paste")
by simon two 09 Dec '19

Hello Elaine. Has there been any development of this problem since the 2007 post? I’m trying to duplicate a small group in a large molecule and use the copy to substitute it an existing group of very similar size in the same molecule.
