gopenmol files in chimera?
by syma 25 Jul '05

25 Jul '05

HI, I was just wondering if it is possible to import gopenmol plt files in chimera either directly or by going through a (freely available) conversion code? Thanks in advance for your help, -Syma *************************************************** Dr Syma Khalid Lab. of Molecular Biophysics, Department of Biochemistry, University of Oxford South Parks Road, Oxford OX1 3QU U.K. ***************************************************

insertion codes and residue selection
by Moo Cow 11 Jul '05

11 Jul '05

I would be very grateful for advice. Some coordinates contain residue 51 residue 51A (a residue with an insertion code) If I select #0:51 then both residues are selected. Is there any way to persuade chimera to just select residue 51, but not 51A ? Many thanks -- ___________________________________________________________ Sign-up for Ads Free at Mail.com http://promo.mail.com/adsfreejump.htm

How to append functional groups to a residue
by C. Parry 01 Jul '05

01 Jul '05

Hi Chimera Peoples - My question is how does one append a functional group (say, nitro, bromine, ..., or metal) to a residue (say, tyrosine, ..., adenine). This would involve replacing some atom or group. I am aware of 'swapa,' 'swapna' commands but these are straight forward one-for-one changes of whole residues. Thanks. C.

Chimera Folks, I was looking at the gallery images and noticed that one is of the FlAsH molecule. Are the PDB coordinate available somewhere for this molecule? Or ReAsH? Thanks, David

Electron density
by C. Parry 22 Jun '05

22 Jun '05

Could anyone help with loading and displaying CNS or XPLOR electron density maps in Chimera. I have tried many times and also the dialog boxes in the user guide do not exactly correspond to the version (12/2004) of Chimera I have. Thanks. ____________________________________________________ Yahoo! Sports Rekindle the Rivalries. Sign up for Fantasy Football http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com

how to open bug-report dialog in v1.2105

Hi, In v1.2105 (irix) the report a bug command under the help menu is not available (as stated in the current development documentation I assume for v1.2129). How do I open the bug report submission dialog from the command line or from the menus even if a crash or error has not occurred? Thanks, Sabuj Pattanayek

Red / blue stereo

Steve Ludtke would like red / blue stereo.

We have a couple of SGI's still with the standard shutter-glasses, and a single PC with a CRT and an active stereo capable projector. We tried the Sharp autostereographic monitor, but it works only so-so, and gives me a headache almost instantly. It would be really useful to have simple stereo set up for occasional use on all of the desktop machines in the lab (which have normal LCD panels now). Anyway, I was just wondering if you guys thought about implementing analglyph (red/blue glasses) stereo ? I've done this manually for snapshots using the 'left eye' and 'right eye' mode in chimera to get the separation right, and it works surprisingly well as long as you don't mind sacrificing color. It would be very useful to have this available for interactive use. Any chance ? (it's also very useful for posters, since many people can't do the eye-crossing thing). Just a suggestion :^) - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Steven Ludtke, PhD | Baylor College of Medicine sludtke(a)bcm.tmc.edu | Asst.

New 64-bit Linux version of Chimera
by Thomas Goddard 17 May '05

17 May '05

A new 64-bit Linux Chimera snapshot (version 1.2123) is available on the Chimera download page. http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/download.html Unless you are viewing large data sets (> 1 Gb), we suggest you use 32-bit versions of Chimera on 64-bit Linux systems. 32-bit versions will likely run faster and use less memory. The 32-bit versions are more likely to be compatible with your Linux distribution. We are not yet making regular distributions for 64-bit linux so our 32-bit version will usually be newer. Tom

Hello, I have a question concerning the surface resolution of multiscale models. My intention was to create a surface from pdb data, export it as vrml and reimport it in maya for further animation, shading etc. It works quite well (I had to convert the vrml file in ascii with Deep Explorer first) but the problem is, that I do not get a fine surface with all its convexities and sites for binding. This is important for my work because I would like to animate receptor binding and subsequent signaling in maya. I am looking for a fine surface like these MSMS main surface from pdb data. I do not need many copies of single pdb surfaces but I guess I will only get a #real# surface using the multiscale models tool?? I tried to change the surface resolution (the best result was with resolution: 3, threshold atom density 0.00, smoothing factor 0.5 and smoothing interations 2/3) but I was not able to create a really fine surface. Is there any possibility to get a finer surface (like MSMS main surface) for VRML export? If not, do you have an idea if there are other tools to do that? It would be rally great if you could give me a short reply. Thanks a lot in advance (and sorry for my english...). Best regards Ute

Hi, I have a problem with the "scale bar" option in Chimera. I was trying to show the scale bar together with a EM density map in spider/brix format. Howerver, it seems that when I changed zoom in/out position, the size change of the "scale bar" is not proportional to the size change of the density map?

mmaker

i'm confused about the command "mmaker". `chimera --nogui mmaker` causes a "no such file or directory" error, so i tried `chimera --nogui --mmaker` which isnt' right either. also tried just `mmaker` even though its not in bin/ lib/. so do i make a heredoc script? i suspect i am missing a fundamental point (that i didn't find with `google: mmaker site:www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera`) i've tried both the latest official release and the lastest snapshot. -bryan
