Hi, I'm encountering a problem wherein unstructured residues are present in the sequence the first time I fetch it from PDB, but are omitted after I save the file locally and reopen it. Has anyone else encountered this and would you happen to know a workaround? Details I'm running Chimera 1.14 (build 42094) on MacOS Mojave V10.14.6 I'm using 6VXX as the PDB file. When I fetch a structure by ID: (PDB mmCIF) and open a sequence (Tools --> Sequence --> Sequence), it shows me a complete sequence containing both residues present in the structure, as well as unresolved/unstructured residues. The unresolved residues are outlined by a red border. However, if I save this session to a file or save the structure to PDB and then reopen it; if I then open the sequence, it only shows me the sequence of residues present in the structure, and omits all of the unresolved / unstructured residues. (All the red outlined residues are now gone) Is there any way to preserve the unstructured residues when saving these files? Thank you, Rob Blakemore robert.blakemore@tufts.edu
