Hi, The possible reason for the chopped ccp4 maps when they are displayed in Chimera (whereas they're fine Coot) may have to do with the fact that as far as I know Chimera does not apply the crystallographic symmetry operations to the ccp4 map (at least that's how it used to be in v1.3), whereas Coot does. So if the map is defined for the asymmetric unit only, it has to be expanded in order to cover all the region which one wants to display before being read into Chimera. There could of course be other reasons for the chopped maps.

Hi Bridget,
I put an example animation on the Chimera web site in the animation gallery called "Herpes virus slices". There is also a link to a command script which makes this movie. You just use File/Open... in Chimera to run the command script.

OK, thanks Tom. Any tips on how to do all three planes
rather keep the others constant while eating though the side
at once - or plane. I
have sen movies like this but can;t seem to figure out how to do it in Chimera. Bridget

Hi, This in context of using Chimera to view *ccp4 format electron density maps. How does Chimera 'Threshold Level' ('Level' in Volume viewer) equate or relate to sigma level reported by some other programs. For example a 'Level' of 0.4 seems like a map contoured at 1.5 sigma or so. I was wondering if someone could point out how these two are related, more precisely.
Thanks
Veer Sandeep Bhatt
