Good days, I'm new user of Chimera therefore I need help using build structure option of program. I want to add MRAE residues to N-terminal of enzyme as an alpha helix structure but I can not use the directions of tutorial such as: addaa tyr,30 :29.a - add tyrosine in an extended conformation as residue 30, after residue 29 in chain A (the new residue will also be in chain A) Where can I write this command? I'm trying to add four residues to N terminal but I'm adding them to another point. I'm sending the screen image. Please help me. Best regards Dilara Karaman
Hi Dilara, In order to enter commands you need to show the Chimera command line, which you can do with the Favorites→Command Line menu item. If you want the command line to show up every time you start Chimera, use Favorites→Add to Favorites/Toolbar… and click the “Auto Start” button for the Command Line in the resulting dialog, then click the Save button. --Eric Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab
