Hello,

I am trying to use Chimera to predict the structure of a nucleotide sequence that does not have a PDB ID. This is an unstudied protein, and I’m hoping to get some structure information and to visualize it using the software.

I tried using the tutorials, but the best I can tell it appears to work off of already available PDB IDs.

Is there a way I can enter the nucleotide sequences as a starting point? If so I’d really appreciate a few step/steps on how to do this.

Best,

Chad
