Dear All, I am working with a glycoprotein structure and I want to visualize the protein surface as a continuum with the glycans sticking out as sticks. If I visualize the surface of the whole molecule (including sugars), and then I select the sugars only and visualize them as sticks, the surface of the amino acids immediately connected to the sugar (Asn) appear to be clipped. One solution could be to the following: 1. save the model with a different name 2. load the 2 identical structures and align them 3. remove the sugars from one structure only and use it to visualize the protein 4. the second structure is used for visualizing the sugars and not the protein. I used to do something similar with Pymol, and it should work with Chimera as well, but I am sure there is a better/simpler solution. Any suggestion? Thank you for your help. Carlo
