Hello Mr. Pettersen, I apologize for bothering you but I had a Chimera question that is best explained by the screenshot attached. For some reason Chimera is importing multiple copies of 1f16.pdb. PyMol does not do this, but I prefer to use Chimera. Do you have any suggestions as to how to fix this? Thank you in advance.

Hi, 1f16.pdb is an NMR structure, hence the PDB file includes several copies of the same protein representing different conformations of the protein that satisfy the NMR constraints. So you have 1 structure that includes several « submodels ».. Likely Pymol will also import all submodels but only displays the first one. You can select a given submodel: SELECT -> CHAIN -> A -> and you will sell #0.1 #0.2…. #0.1 means select submodes 1 from model 0. This also applies to the command line hope this helps Laurent Laurent Maveyraud PICT, Plateforme Intégrée de Criblage de Toulouse Université Paul Sabatier / CNRS / I.P.B.S.

1f16 is a NMR structure and as such has 20 different variations of the structure. Using the command line, you can hide all except for the first structure with the command: ~modeldisplay #0.2-20. To do that graphically, bring up the Model Panel, then click on the group/ungroup button to show controls for the individual structures. Then select the structures you don't want (click, drag, control-click, and shift-click as appropriate), and click on the hide button to leave the one you want.
