Hi,

I´m frequently looking at pdb´s that contain multiple chains, like ribosomes or preribosomes (e.g. Pdb  3JCT).

Is there a way to import the information from the pdb database, which tells you the name of the chains?

Chain A = rpl2

Chain B = Rpl4 etc.

Cool would be to split the pdb into multiple models that have the name from the pdb database.

(It is quite annoying to have a pdb with nearly 60 different chains and you have to spend half a day to rename the chains or to create individual models, before analyzing the structure)

Thanks for suggestions and solutions

Best wishes

Jochen
