Hi all, I need to calculate an average structure (or select the most representative member of), from an NMR emsemble structures in Chimera. Is it possible? Thanks for any helps. Lucio

Hi Lucio, Sorry, Chimera doesn't calculate an average structure from an ensemble. However, "Ensemble Cluster" (in the menu under Tools... MD/Ensemble Analysis) will give clusters, and for each cluster, the best representative. That's not exactly what you asked for (the one best representative), but may be worth a look: <http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/ContributedSoftware/ensemblecluster/ens...> This tool is also used in the "Model Panel and Ensembles" tutorial: <http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/tutorials/ensembletut.html> I hope this helps, Elaine ---------- Elaine C.
