labeling of protein-ligand interactions
by Enrico Martinez 18 Jan '22

18 Jan '22

Dear ChimeraX users! I am working on the visualization of the protein-ligand interactions. The two below commands are used to visualize and label amino acids involved in the interactions with the ligand contacts #1.1 & ligand makePseudobonds false reveal true log true label @@display How could I increase the font size and change the colour of the displayed amino acid labels (like Tyr-188)? Is it possible to hide the name of the ligand which always appears after the label command? Many thanks in advance! Enrico

Alphafold multimer
by Rafael Ponce 17 Jan '22

17 Jan '22

Dear Sir or Madam, I want to predict the structure of a complex in ChimeraX using alphafold, but it seems that this feature is going to be in version 1.4 but version 1.3 is the one that is currently available, so I would like to know if you have an estimation of when the version 1.4 will be available to download. Thank you in advance for the information. Best regards, Rafael Ponce

zoom on the selection after orientation of the selected object
by Enrico Martinez 17 Jan '22

17 Jan '22

Dear Chimera users! I am using ChimeraX for the visualization of protein-ligand interactions comparing two different pdb structures A - ensemble for doclong; B- X-ray pose: open A.pdb open B.pdb' match #2 to #1.1 # close all docking poses with the exemption of the first pose: close #1.2-end view wait # hide the protein from X-ray pose keeping only ligand for visualisation: hide #2 & protein cartoon hide #2 & protein surface hide #2 & protein #orient view on the model 1.1 and zoom closer view #1.1 orient; turn z 90 zoom 1.5 wait The problem is that when I use zoom 1.5 after view #1.1 it hides completely the representation for the molecule on the current GUI. Otherwise, it works fine if I center view on the both A and B: view orient; turn z 90 zoom 1.5 How could I zoom the screen properly after orientation of the view on the first molecule? Many thanks in advance! Enrico

Cleaning a pdb file
by Martin Urban 16 Jan '22

16 Jan '22

Hey there, I have a specific pdf file (3BMP.pdb) and I would like to "clean" it from the chemical compounds which are in the file. I would like to know if there is anyway in ChimeraX to "clean" the file programmatically? Greetings from Germany - Martin

Re: [chimerax-users] [Chimera-users] ChimeraX in no-gui mode: visualisation of protein-ligand interactions
by Elaine Meng 16 Jan '22

See the "color" command for coloring the ligand, and "set" or "graphics" for coloring the background, and "label" (or "2dlabels" but that usually requires you to position them interactively) for labeling. All of these are included in the "making images" page I mentioned near the end of my previous message.

Color Model by Another Model
by Anderson, Jacob 15 Jan '22

15 Jan '22

I have a use case where I would like to color chains of model X by the chains of model Y (they are duplicates). What might be the best way to do this? For example, I thought there may be a way to run something like: "info colors #1 byChain" to get the colors of all chains printed to the log like "#1/A blue, #1/B red . . .". Then one could easily change #1 to #2 with sed in a text editor. Does a tool like that exist in ChimeraX? Or has might anyone have tips for coloring a model's chain by another models chains? jacob

Saving images in nogui mode
by Tom Goddard 14 Jan '22

14 Jan '22

Hi Erico, Greg is right that only Ubuntu and CentOS Linux ChimeraX versions include rendering images in no gui mode. But I made rendering in no gui mode work on macOS about a year ago, but it is not in the distribution because it is such a rarely used feature it did not seem worth increasing the distribution by 16 Mbytes. But I could provide this to individuals who need it. Tom > On Jan 14, 2022, at 3:05 PM, Greg Couch via Chimera-users <chimera-users(a)cgl.ucsf.edu> wrote: > > That is correct.

Re: [chimerax-users] [Chimera-users] Autodock Vina plugin
by Ralph Loring 12 Jan '22

12 Jan '22

Hi, I've been trying out ChimeraX v. 1.3 vs. Chimera v. 1.15 on the same computer and notice that the publication presets for Chimera (Preset publication 1) look to my eye far superior to the preset publication setting for ChimeraX. This is really noticeable when comparing side by side at 400% enlargement. The attached tif file was created from powerpoint at 300 dpi comparing the same set of pdbs superimposed using Matchmaker from similar vantage points (but colored differently) and saved as tiff files or copied using screenshots. To my eye, the screenshot of the Chimera image is better than the ChimeraX tiff and the Chimera tiff is the best of all. The alpha helices in ChimeraX look washed out and the shading is less defined. Is there any way to get comparable images to the Chimera preset publication 1 in ChimeraX? Also, although these images are from the same pdb sources, it seems that the backbone ribbon is much more jagged in ChimeraX. Is there more smoothing in the algorithm for Chimera? Not that it matters that much, but I'd just like to know.

Per-residue correlation coefficient
by Tom Goddard 10 Jan '22

10 Jan '22

Hi Yumeng, It would be useful if ChimeraX could report the per-residue correlation of an atomic model with a map as Phenix can do. I'll made a feature request for that https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/trac/ChimeraX/ticket/5897 You can make feature requests yourself using ChimeraX menu entry Help / Report a Bug.... Bugs and feature requests go into our ChimeraX issue tracking database. There is a ChimeraX plugin called StrudelScore from the EMDB that gives per-residue fit statistics. You can get the plugin using ChimeraX menu Tools / More Tools.... There is online documentation here https://cxtoolshed.rbvi.ucsf.edu/apps/chimeraxstrudelscore <https://cxtoolshed.rbvi.ucsf.edu/apps/chimeraxstrudelscore> and a tutorial https://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/emdb_vault/strudel_tutorials/introducti… <https://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/emdb_vault/strudel_tutorials/introducti…> Also there is a ChimeraX command resfit that lets you look at the fit of each residue in the density, moving a slider to go to the next residue. It can also make a video, here is an example, https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/data/sbgrid-apr2017/images/resfit.mp4 <https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/data/sbgrid-apr2017/images/resfit.mp4> https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/data/sbgrid-apr2017/cryomovie.html <https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/data/sbgrid-apr2017/cryomovie.html> and here is resfit command documentation https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/resfit.html Tom Example of resfit command display of residue fit to map. > On Jan 10, 2022, at 3:48 PM, Yumeng Yan <yumeng.yan(a)cpr.ku.dk> wrote: > > Hi Tom, > > Many thanks for your reply. It works follow your suggestion. I can not open ChimeraX in the gui mode while the ChimeraX is installed on a remote cluster and I did not configure it correctly, so bad.

And your output says the correlation coefficient is 0. That most likely means the atomic model is not located in the map. Why don't you just do the same steps in gui mode and see what happens -- it should produce exactly the same result as nogui mode. Also note that the displayed surface level matters because by default fitmap only uses data above the contour level of the displayed surface of the map you are fitting into. That actually may explain why your large map case did not work, because if you open a large map ChimeraX may initially just show a single plane in gray scale instead of a surface, and with no surface it won't have a surface level. So to get a predictable result you should use the volume command to show a surface of the full map and set the threshold level you want to use, for example, > > volume #1 style surface region all level 0.2 > > I see that ChimeraX does not have the "measure correlation" command that is in the older Chimera program.

No cc when using fitmap

Hi, When I tried to use fitmap function ChimeraX in Linux with --nogui option, I got no CC output when the Cryo-EM map is large(1.6GB) and I think in this situation, the local fit did not work. When the map was cut of a half size, it works. But it works well on Windows. Could you help me?
