Dear chimera users, I also added an amino acid residue at the N-terminus of a small protein following the posting: [Chimera-users] Using addaa at the N-terminus?*[ posted date:Fri Sep 30 10:36:31 PDT 2011]* The residue is added at the n-terminus but the added residue is not connected to rest of the protein structure in the graphical display [i.e, a little gap between the added residue and the rest of the protein at N-terminus]. Is this due to wrong command ? Thanks, Mahendra Thapa Graduate student Department of Physics University of Cincinnati, OH
Hi Mahendra, If you got a new residue, the command is right. It is only an issue of what is displayed. Just redraw the ribbon (menu: Actions... Ribbon... show, or command: ribbon), or instead of ribbon, show all atoms (for example, menu: Preset... Interactive 2 (all atoms)). Here is the full explanation of the command, in case you wanted to see all the options: <http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/addaa.html> Best, Elaine ----- Elaine C.
