Dear Chimera users! I am on the preparation of interactive molecular visualisation, focusing on ligand-binding representation in GPCRs system. Working with the X-ray structures of the receptor bound with the ligand, I wonder to ask some suggestions: 1 - I need to move ligand from ligand binding pocket burried within receptor (as on default in the X-ray structure) towards the selected position outside of it - e.g in case where I would like to depict "vestibule" for the ligand enterance. As I understood for the realisation I should to select ligand within the current model and than to copy it to new model (layer) which then should be moved against the structure, shouldn't it? 2- Is it possible using some Chimera tool to indicate "approximate" membrane plane assuming that GPCRs structure is shown in latteral perspective? Thanks so much for the help! James
