hello, 1 how can i use this software to do molecular dynasty? 2 can you tell me how to asure conservation sequence through protein alignment. maybe this is just for basic knowledge,but i am a freshman.
Hello, It is better to send Chimera questions to chimera-users@cgl.ucsf.edu instead of just to me. (1) maybe you mean molecular dynamics - sorry, Chimera does not do molecular dynamics. (2) I recommend going through some of the Chimera tutorials. There are some beginner tutorials and others that include showing conservation and aligning protein structures. You can see the tutorials by choosing "Help... Tutorials" from the Chimera menu, or by going to our web site: <http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/current/docs/UsersGuide/frametut.html> Also, I have my own page on where you can get sequence alignments for viewing in Chimera: <http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/home/meng/sources.html> Elaine ----- Elaine C.
