Selecting bonds/pseudobonds with a cutt-off distance

Hi all, how can I select bonds/pseudobonds with a cutt-off distance, say bonds/pseudobonds with more than/less than X? Thanks in advance, Yasser

Hi Yasser, Sorry, Chimera does not include a command or tool to select bonds or pseudobonds by length. There might be something similar in the Chimera plugins on the web (developed by others), say Xlink Analyzer, but I don’t know for certain: <http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/plugins/plugins.html> If you use ChimeraX instead, it can be done for pseudobonds (but not bonds) with the “select” command and the “minimumLength” and/or “maximumLength” option, see: <http://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/select.html#new> In ChimeraX you can also display an interactive histogram of pseudobond lengths with the “crosslinks histogram” command, as shown here for H-bonds: <http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/features.html#hbond-histogram> I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.
