Thanks a lot for trying to help. I did exactly just that, the option you described renames duplicate chains in the structure, however, in my structure, there are no duplicate chains. There's an A and a B chain. When I copy combine, I get another structure with A and B as well. I want the second structure to have C and D instead, i.e. a unique chain ID that is different from the original model's chain. On Thu, Apr 19, 2018 at 6:43 PM, Elaine Meng <meng@cgl.ucsf.edu> wrote:
Hi Ahmad, See the previous reply: the combined single model will not have any two chains with the same ID if you use the option I described, which is the default. Make sure you are looking only at the final combined model, not the other starting models which may still be open.

Sorry for the confusion. By tubulin monomer I mean an alpha-beta dimer. A tubulin trimer would be three tubulins of six chains A-B-A-B-A-B, each two belonging to a tubulin monomer.
My question is, if the first monomer has chains A and B, I want the copy/combine model to have different chain ID letters from A and B, for example C and D, and so on for the third, and fourth, etc.
How can I do that?
