Is there a way in chimera to obtain an RMSD between two structures without matching them, ie. just to know the difference between them? Miriam Gochin Touro University - CA miriam.gochin@tu.edu 707-638-5463

Hi Miriam, Yes, the command "rmsd" does exactly that. Syntax is the same as for "match" but unlike that command, it does not move anything, just calculates the RMSD in the current positions. <http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/rmsd.html> Best, Elaine ----- Elaine C.
