While debugging a bit of Chimera code I stumbled upon molecular voodoo. Stick pins in any evil molecule. Ask your doctor if this treatment may be right for you. A snake toxin (PDB 1a0m) has been fully cursed in the attached image. I attach the voodoo doll Chimera script for your amusement. You open voodoodoll.py in Chimera and then ctrl-right-mouse-button lets you place pins. Works in Chimera production release 1.2470 and newer. Tom def mouse_down_cb(viewer, event): from VolumeViewer import slice xyz_in, xyz_out = slice.clip_plane_points(event.x, event.y) from chimera import selection selection.clearCurrent() from VolumePath import place_marker place_marker(xyz_in) place_marker(xyz_out) from chimera import mousemodes as m m.addFunction('hide triangle', (mouse_down_cb, None, None)) m.setButtonFunction('3', ['Ctrl'], 'hide triangle')
