Use of sym command
by Lee A.G. 11 Jul '18

11 Jul '18

Hi Elaine I am trying to use the sym command to generate BIOMT-described copies of a protein. As a test I have used 2oli, as in your contribution of 12 Jan 2009. Having loaded 2oli and entered the command sym #0 #0 I get the error message "No symmetric molecule copies". Any help gratefully received Anthony Lee

Hi I'm interested in acquiring a PC with capabilities to use ChimeraX for 3D VR visualization of large volumes (2k cube). What is the best configuration (CPU, GPU, VR hardware) for around a $5-10k budget? Bernard

Clustering algorithm
by David Adrian Saez San Martin 10 Jul '18

10 Jul '18

Hello, I want to use Chimera to generate clusters of a molecular dynamics trajectory. I have been looking for info about the clustering algorithm it uses, but I was not able to find anything. I guess it employs a default technique, does anybody know which one? Regards. David-.

Problem with netcdf trajectories
by David Sáez 09 Jul '18

09 Jul '18

Hello, I am using UCSF Chimera, candidate version 1.13 LInux64. When I load an MD Movie with prmtop and netcdf files (both created using Amber) the software crashes and gives segmentation fault error. In the trajectory dialog box the netcdf format is not shown as an option. With the previous version, I was able to open those files. Regards.

Need your Kind help..

Dear Sir/Madam Greetings for the day!! Myself Rajlakshmi Chetty, is Doctoral student in field of Nanomaterials. I am self learning and using chimera since back few days with the help of website tutorials and am stuck with a problem which is described below: I have .pdb file format of docked complex (Hex software) in which their is H bond is missing between ligand and receptor when opened in chimera. I tried Tools>structure depiction>find H bond but in that parameters query when i apply I am getting H bond of the whole complex which I don't want. I want to visualize H bond or any bonding between ligand and receptor. Is their any other way or what parameters change i need to do? I have attached H bond parameters dialog box with this mail. This problem where I am stuck is need for the time for my research work. So your kind help will be a great blessings for me. Your help of gratitude will be highly appreciated. Thanking you and looking forward for your reply!! -- *Kind Regards* *Rajlakshmi Chetty* Doctoral Student School of Chemical Sciences Central University of Gujarat Gandhinagar 382030 India Mobile No :- * +91 9427178591* +91 8780155455 e_mail :- *rajlakshmi(a)cug.ac.in <rajlakshmi(a)cug.ac.in>* [image: Mailtrack] <https://mailtrack.io?utm_source=gmail&utm_medium=signature&utm_campaign=sig…> Sender notified by Mailtrack <https://mailtrack.io?utm_source=gmail&utm_medium=signature&utm_campaign=sig…> 07/07/18, 12:27:44 PM

Interactions pairs
by Francesco Pappalardo 05 Jul '18

05 Jul '18

Dear All, We started to use Chimera since few time. I have, maybe, a very easy question. How we can visualise interactions pairs between the ligand and the receptor for which we computed blind docking. For the sake of clarity I attach a figure showing what we wish to get. Thank you.

Hello Thanks a lot for your effort please help me to know how can I determine My Model for a certain mutated gene (like smn protein for normal sequences,type I,II,III,and IV Spinal muscular atrophy) How can I know the protein model for different seq is functional or non functional? I made models for different affected cases of SMA with A suitable template for pdb and Recorded The Qmean and GMQE number for each model with but till now I can not be able to determine this sequence produce good functional protein or not especially with gene have Frame shift mutation which produce new protein and also have a lot of stop codon in the sequence I hope you understand the meaning of my Question ? and hope to guide me to suitable tool or method Thanks

What is exactly matchDist?
by Murpholino Peligro 04 Jul '18

04 Jul '18

Got 8 x-ray structures. Load them into Chimera and did Structure Comparison -> MatchMaker (with multiple sequence alignment). In the alignment I choose Structure-> Asses Match and it creates a residue attribute named matchDist. I guess is the Distance in angstroms for every alpha carbon in my ith structure (where i=1, 2, 3, ...7) to every matching alpha carbon in my reference structure? Thanks

Please unbundle libRMF
by Yuri 02 Jul '18

02 Jul '18

Chimera installs lib/libRMF.so, and UCSF IMP also installs lib/libRMF.so, so that they can't be used together, despite the claim that "IMP can also be used from the Chimera <http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/> molecular modeling system" (see https://integrativemodeling.org/) Please unbundle libRMF (https://github.com/salilab/rmf) and use an external package for it. Also imagine if some other software used libRMF too, how can they all be installed together? Bundling is a mess. Please never bundle software packages because this only causes problems down the road. I also asked IMP to unbundle libRMF.so: https://github.com/salilab/imp/issues/1005 Thanks, Yuri
