Hi Helen, Take a look at the Rotamers tool (under Tools... Structure Editing) - I think it does exactly what you want. Besides displaying the rotamers of your chosen residue type and their library probability values, it can evaluate clashes, H-bonds, etc. and allows you to incorporate a chosen rotamer back into the structure. Here is the man page for the Rotamers graphical interface: http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/ContributedSoftware/rotamers/ framerot.html There is also a command implementation, swapaa: http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/swapaa.html I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.

Hi everyone, I want to model my mutated residue into crystal structure and see its interactions. If anyone knows and easy way of doing it in Chimera please let me know.
Thanks everyone, Helen Josephine
