Question on labeling residues on a single-chain protein
I wish to label certain residues and have these appear along with the structure. I have used the Command line to enter the following. rlabel Met_71.A What other Command(s) is required to display and later print the labeled structure? Many thanks!
Hi David, The correct version of that command would be: rlabel :71.a Command-line specification is explained here: <http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/frameatom_spec.html> You can save image files with menu: File... Save Image (or command "copy"). Actually for nice labels in an image, you might want to use 2D Labels instead (menu: Tools.. Utilities... 2D Labels). Click the Help button on that dialog for more information on how to use it.
