Hi, On top of what Elaine wrote there is also the interface between Consurf (http://consurf.tau.ac.il/) and Chimera, which is also a very nice option.

I have got a result of sequence alignment (.fas file). How can I apply this alignment result to the surface coloring in Chimera? Thanks! best wishes! Zhihai Li
