Is it possible to depict in Chimera a protein and/or ligand (any) in a water box. The reason I'm asking is because I want to show the thermodynamic cycle for calculating a binding free energy. The image should be high resolution for publication purposes. Many thanks in advance for any suggestions Regards George
Hi Geoerge, You can save images at essentially any size and resolution that you want, using menu File... Save Image or command "copy," see: <http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/print.html> If you meant you wanted to add a water box, see Tools... Structure Editing... Solvate: <http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/ContributedSoftware/solvate/solvate.html> I hope this helps, Elaine ---------- Elaine C.
