Query regarding depth cueing
by Prathvi Singh 22 Nov '22

22 Nov '22

Hi Elaine, Is there a way to change the depth cueing gradually using command line in either chimera or chimeraX? If possible, then it would be a great way to emphasize on a specific part of the protein while making a chimera movie. -- Prathvi Singh, Research Fellow, Department of Biological Sciences & Bioengineering, Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur-208016

Alphafold
by Kornelius Zeth 20 Nov '22

20 Nov '22

Dear all - I'm using Alphafold in Chimera and I have a problem to run this properly on Colab. The people from Colab say that the error messages I get since recently are related to Alphafold developers having installed a new version. Could you please let me know what I could do to get the program running again? Thanks and have a nice day Kornelius

Saving omega angles to file
by Prathvi Singh 18 Nov '22

18 Nov '22

Hello Elaine, Is there a way to save the omega angle of residues to a file using either chimera or chimeraX? I am able to save the phi, psi, chi angles using the *Render by attribute *tool in chimera but I could not find a way to save the omega angle. -- Prathvi Singh, Research Fellow, Department of Biological Sciences & Bioengineering, Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur-208016

How to insert a nucleotide to a pdb
by Magdalena Riad 18 Nov '22

18 Nov '22

Hi, I have a pdb-file of the ribosome and would like to insert two nucleotides to one of the rRNA-chains. How do I do that? I’ve found the addaa command for amino acids, is there a similar one for nucleotides?

Query regarding the Zone tool in UCSF chimera
by Prathvi Singh 18 Nov '22

18 Nov '22

Elaine, In UCSF Chimera, when I try to find all the atoms within 4A of a selected residue using the *Zone* tool, it selects several atoms around that residue. However, I am not able to understand which atom of the selected residue was taken as the reference point for calculating the distances. Please help. -- Prathvi Singh, Research Fellow, Department of Biological Sciences & Bioengineering, Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur-208016

No MMTK name for atom "H" in standard residue "GLY"
by Marco Sette 15 Nov '22

15 Nov '22

Dear all, i'm trying to minimize a peptide (Tools, Structure editing, Minimize Structure) but I obtain this error message: No MMTK name for atom "H" in standard residue "GLY". I have a Gly in position 1, does this depends on the NH protonation? Also, I fixed most of the residues, including Gly 1, trying to minimize a small region (Fixed Atoms: selected, in minimize panel) but still have the same errors. How can I solve it?

combining two models into single model with two chains
by Elaine Meng 13 Nov '22

13 Nov '22

Hi Ali, I don't know what you mean by "sub-branches of that chain" -- if they are listed as two separate things in the Model Panel (e.g. #0.1 and #0.2), then it means they are two separate models. You can show Model Panel from the Favorites menu. If so, then you want to put them together into one model with two different chains. For that, see the "copy/combine" function in the Model Panel (in the menu under Favorites) or the "combine" command. Details in the User Guide: <https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/modelpanel.html> <https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/modelpanel.html#combine> <https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/combine.html> If they are really only one model with one chain, then you can only change the ID of part of the chain if the two parts are really disconnected. See Tools... Structure Editing... Change Chain IDs: <https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/ContributedSoftware/editing/changech…> If they are NOT disconnected, you would have to manually edit the PDB file in some text editor first to add a TER between the parts. <https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/tutorials/framepdbintro.h…> I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.

For the next step, I need to upload to Prodigy, which requires me to separate the ligand chain and receptor chain to perform the analysis. But in the PDB file that I open in Chimera, there is only one chain, and ligand and receptor are divided as sub-branches of that chain, and Prodigy algorithm does not accept it. > I wanted to know how to divide the protein and its receptor into two different chains? > > Best regards!
