Hi Elaine,

I tried both selections but the side with the selected N atom (N side) moves in either one. The N side has a ligand bound to it. Is there a way to treat the N side and its ligand as a single object so that even it moves the ligand moves with it? Thank you.

Hi Jing,
Just choose the other option, move on N side.

We need to change the wording in the dialog to make it more clear. By “C side” we really meant the side with the selected C atom, even though that becomes the N side of the final joined protein.

I hope this helps,
Elaine
