Re: [chimerax-users] Using Vive controllers with webcam function in ChimeraX
by Tom Goddard 15 Jul '20

15 Jul '20

Hi Józef, The Vive controllers only work in VR mode. You could enable VR mode and just not put on the headset. The "vr roomCamera" command would allow showing the molecular graphics in the desktop window from a specific position which you would want to match your webcam's physical position in the VR space. And you will want to match the vr roomCamera field of view to the field of view of the webcam. Then you will have several problems. First, the hand controller cones won't line up perfectly with the video of the hand controllers -- there will be unpleasant lag. And without the VR headset on it will be very challenging to point at things. But you might as well put on the VR headset to solve that. Then it should work -- you can use the VR with webcam AR. This is just what I did with VR plus a depth sensing camera except that the depth camera also can blend the depth correctly.

Hi, if in a command you use an attribute that does not exist, ChimeraX (1.0) uses all the objects, for example: show @@asdf Is this intended? Regards, Daniel Palma Igor

Color electrostatic ValueError
by Maria Maldonado 14 Jul '20

14 Jul '20

Hello ChimeraX team, I was hoping you could help me with a python error I get when trying to use the color electrostatic command. I have my protein surface and my electrostatic map from Delphi in cube format. When I run “color electrostatic #1 map #2 palette -10,red:0,white:10,blue”, I get long error ending in “ValueError: The truth value of an array with more than one element is ambiguous. Use a.any() or a.all() File "/programs/i386-mac/chimerax/0.91/ChimeraX.app/Contents/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/lib/python3.7/site-packages/chimerax/map/data/gaussian/gaussian_format.py", line 120, in matrix if self.matrices == None: See log for complete Python traceback.” (I can send you the full error if useful.) I don’t get the error if I use a Delphi .phi file. However, the .phi files from this Delphi version have a bug that distorts the map, so the Delphi developers recommended using the .cube format instead. (The newer version of Delphi does not seem available for Mac at the moment.) Is the ValueError to do with ChimeraX or is it something to do with the .cube files? Do you have any suggestions as to how to solve this? Thank you very much for all your help, Maria

ChimeraZ: show surface under another surface
by Anastasiya Oguienko 13 Jul '20

13 Jul '20

Dear ChimeraX developers, Hello! Thanks for this amazing tool, I enjoy every second of using it! I have a question about surface imaging: I have several subunits in the protein, and I would like to show surfaces of particular regions of different subunits. However, when one surface is above another, the lower one is not displayed no matter what the transparency value is. Is there a way to display both of the overlapping surfaces? Thanks in advance! -- With Best Regards, Anastasiya Oguienko

[chimeraX-users] to display cylinder and helical ribbon of one chain
by Yingyi Zhang 10 Jul '20

10 Jul '20

Dear ChimeraX Team, I have one model (pdb format), which contains multiple chains. Each chain (chain A for instance) consists of several helices. Is it possible to display ChainA in this manner - first two helices as cylinders but the others as ribbons? I tried to specify the residues, but it always changed the entire presence of the model, including the un-selected ones. Could you help me with this? I am still not very familiar with chimeraX. Thank you very much. Best regards, Yingyi

When there are adjacent residues of the same type, does the PDB reader see a duplicate atom and generate a new residue? merge the residues? generate an error? I haven't tested the PDB reader, but a residue number helps it too. Learning to use mmCIF effectively will take time. Programmers should use the PDB's mmCIF Dictionary Suite to validate the mmCIF their programs output -- it won't validate completely (because it's for mmCIF files served by the PDB), but it will show where the mmCIF output can be improved. For more information about ChimeraX reading mmCIF, see https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/devel/bundles/mmcif/src/mmcif_guide…. ChimeraX's mmCIF reader tries really hard to show you the data exactly as it is specified. So if there's badly specified data, you'll be able to see it. Over time, we will improve ChimeraX's ability to handle underspecified data as developers start generating mmCIF files. But we don't plan to modify the mmCIF reader if we can help it. Adding code, to infer information that should be explicitly given in the mmCIF file, slows down the mmCIF reader for everyone. This is especially true for large structures with over a million atoms. -- Greg

Re: [chimerax-users] [Chimera-users] Chimera X - Windows 7 home premium
by Greg Couch 08 Jul '20

(This is a ChimeraX question, so sending the reply to the chimerax-users mailing too.) Looking at the image, the three gray boxes are icons for previously opened data files. To get an interactive 3D image, you would need to open an appropriate data file. If you type in the command "open 3rec" and press Enter/Return afterwards to open PDB model 3rec, does an interactive 3D image show up? If you can't get an interactive 3D image, then you probably need a newer graphics driver. I'd recommend going to the Lenovo support web site and installing a newer graphics driver. If the driver from Lenovo doesn't fix the problem, then you'll need to get one directly from Intel at https://downloadcenter.intel.com/. From the DxDiag.txt output, you have a 2nd generation i7 with HD Graphics 3000 driver version 8.15.10.2656. Lenovo has version 8.15.10.2274 from 6/9/2011 for your computer. On the Intel site, I see that version 15.28.24.4229 from 6/5/2015 is available. And you should know that we don't test ChimeraX on Windows 7, so technically you are on an unsupported platform. That said, we are unaware of anything that would prevent ChimeraX from running on Windows 7. However, with the age of your laptop, you should consider switching from Windows to Ubuntu (Linux). Intel is still supporting the Linux graphics driver for older systems.

ChimeraX bug report submission
by Nicco 08 Jul '20

08 Jul '20

The following bug report has been submitted: Platform: Darwin-19.3.0-x86_64-i386-64bit ChimeraX Version: 1.0 (2020-06-04 23:15:07 UTC) Description Hi, I'm trying to record a movie and the movie generated stops before executing all final steps. It's like the last frames are not recorded even when I see a very high limit. I feel like movie encode starts processing before it is called. For example these commands below are not present in the movie but the movie encode is called afterwards. # Select last interaction area select /F:370,375 /E:270,309,314 show sel atoms hbonds sel select clear # Final show turn x 15 60 rock 130 turn -y 15 60 rock 130 I'm a bit puzzled of why this is happening and I don't really now how to fix it.

Re: [chimerax-users] [Chimera-users] Difference in alignment of cofactor between Chimera and ChimeraX
by Elaine Meng 07 Jul '20

07 Jul '20

Hello Derek, You're welcome! Thought I should also mention that in matchmaker you can specify more than one pair of chains, i.e. use multiple pairs of chains for the fit. Which way is better depends on what you are trying to achieve: overall superposition of whole complex, or best fit of a single pair of chains. This multichain fit can be done in either Chimera or ChimeraX with a matchmaker command option. I'll use ChimeraX commands to illustrate: open 3u7q open 5n6y hide ribbon The ChimeraX log shows that 3u7q has four chains, two alpha (A,C) and two beta (B,D) whereas 5n6y has 6 chains, two alpha (A,D), two beta (B,E) and two delta (C,F). So perhaps you want to use all of the alpha and beta chains from the structures for the fit instead of only A with A. Now the trick is to figure out which alpha goes with which alpha and which beta with which beta. I might be lazy and first just try ABCD in 3u7q as pairing with ABDE in 5n6y and see if that looks right. I might also use coloring by polymer (figures out a color based on chain sequence) to make it clearer what's what. color bypolymer mm #2/A,B,D,E to #1/A,B,C,D pair ss <http://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/matchmaker.html> .... which actually looks right. The alphas and betas are colored the same within a given PDB structure but different between the structures, probably because of small sequence differences (something like one structure has a couple more residues on one end or the other; I didn't investigate, but it's expected). The Log reports: RMSD between 1026 pruned atom pairs is 1.314 angstroms; (across all 1783 pairs: 3.281) ...now to check the placement of cofactors: show ligand ~ribbon You can see a more symmetrical fit, with similar displacements on both sides.

how to turn molecule centering a specific atom in ChimeraX
by Shin Inchul 07 Jul '20

07 Jul '20

Hi, I was trying to turn molecule around specific atom. Since I am a beginner of ChimeraX, I would like to have some working examples in the command line. Without it, I have difficulties in applying the usage as appeared in the user guide. In PyMOL, mouse middle button click on a atom sets the centering on the atom then use rotate command. I appreciate all the supports provided. Thank you. Inchul

Re: [chimerax-users] session file sizes

To close molecular surfaces surface close #1 or just surf close If instead you do ~surface that hides the surface. I discourage use of these obscure "~" commands that Chimera used. Use "surface hide #1" or "surface close #1". If you just hide the surfaces they are still in the session file. You can also see the surface models in Model Panel by clicking the little triangle and the left of the model name to show submodel of your molecule. And you can choose those surface models and close them. Tom > On Jul 7, 2020, at 2:48 PM, Melissa Jurica <mjurica(a)ucsc.edu> wrote: > > That was my first guess, so I turned off the surface view.

label_seq_id in mmcif files for Chimera
by Marcin Wojdyr 07 Jul '20

07 Jul '20

Hi, I'd like to generate mmCIF files (using my own software) that can be read by Chimera. The problem is that sometimes I don't know the full sequence (SEQRES), so I don't know values for _atom_site.label_seq_id. If I skip label_seq_id entirely, the file doesn't load. ChimeraX gives warning: "Skipping atom_site category: Missing column 'label_seq_id'". If I set all label_seq_id values to null ('.') I get warning: "Unable to infer polymer connectivity due to unspecified label_seq_id for residue "ARG" near line 125" and all residues are disconnected. How should the mmCIF look like so that Chimera infers the connectivity in the same way as it does for PDB files? Cheers, Marcin

Re: [chimerax-users] [ChimeraX] #3464: partial surface mesh
by Elaine Meng 07 Jul '20

07 Jul '20

Hi Rory, There is no "hydrophobic surface" ... maybe you mean the molecular surface shown as solid (not dot or mesh)? Chimera's presets include "hydrophobicity surface" which is perhaps misleading, simply means the molecular surface colored by hydrophobicity. What exactly are you trying to do? Show protein as mesh surface and ligand as solid surface? You can definitely do it (or any combination of mesh surface on some atoms, solid on some other atoms) by opening multiple copies of the structure, as we said in previous messages. Then in the solid-surface copy, only show the parts of the surface you want as solid. In the mesh-surface copy, show the parts you want as mesh. For example, here is an example that shows H-ras as mesh surface with its ligand GCP as solid surface (image attached below), commands: open 121p open 121p surf #1 & protein surf #2:gcp surf style #1 mesh transp #1 50 surfaces color #2 gold surfaces hide solvent This can all be done with the menu as well, but it would take a lot more typing to enter that whole procedure. I Cc'd chimerax-users(a)cgl.ucsf.edu which is the recommended address for asking ChimeraX questions (for future reference). I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.

color offset and surface type for mapping Electrostatic Potential
by Steve Chou 02 Jul '20

02 Jul '20

Hello everyone, I tried to map Electrostatic Potential (ESP) onto the molecular surface in ChimeraX v1.0 and PyMOL v2.1, but I found that the results were very different in these two programs. Therefore, I wrote to Elaine Meng and Tom Goddard for help. For your reference, I repost the ideals of our emails below. I first calculated the ESP with DelPhi v5.1 (a relatively old version) to get the .phi file (ESP). PyMOL commands for displaying ESP on the molecular surface are as follows: ------------------------------------------------ load 1ubq.pdb bg_color white remove resn hoh remove hydrogens hide line select heavy, name c*+o*+s*+n* show surface load 1ubq.phi, e_map ramp_new e_lvl, e_map, [-7, 0, 7] set surface_color, e_lvl, 1ubq set light_count, 1 set ambient, 0.5 set reflect, 0.2 ------------------------------------------------ ChimeraX commands for displaying ESP on the molecular surface are as follows: ------------------------------------------------ open 1ubq.pdb open 1ubq.phi hide #2 set bg white surface #1 color electrostatic #1 map #2 palette -7,red:0,white:7,blue material dull lighting simple ------------------------------------------------ In PyMOL, the colors (red/blue) are mainly on the residue (E/D, K/R) tips, while in ChimeraX, the colors are spread. Besides, the surface shapes are also slightly different in these two programs. See the image (left and middle panels) for the different colors and shapes. The color difference is caused by the color offset. The shape difference is also explained below. I changed the color offset to 0. Now the color looks similar in these two programs (left and right panels). The color offset (1.4 A) in ChimeraX gives a better idea of the possible charge interactions with other molecules. ------------------------------------------------ color electrostatic #1 map #2 palette -7,red:0,white:7,blue offset 0.0 ------------------------------------------------ The summary of the explanations from Tom: ------------------------------------------------ One idea I have for why PyMol shows redder tips is because ChimeraX is showing the potential 1.4 Angstroms away from the surface since that is about how far away a binding molecule would be. PyMol may be showing the ESP values exactly on the surface. You can try using 0 offset instead of 1.4 with the "color electrostatic" command "offset" parameter. https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/color.html#map ------------------------------------------------ The summary of the explanations from Elaine: ------------------------------------------------ As Tom mentioned, the rationale for the 1.4 A projection is that Chimera and ChimeraX show the solvent-excluded surface (SES), as opposed to the solvent-accessible surface (SAS). The SAS is approximately half a probe radius outward, and the SAS represents the closest possible approach of atomic centers of waters or ligands interacting with the protein, so the result is coloring by what values of the electrostatic potential (ESP) that such ligands would "see". The diagram in this page shows the relationships among SES, SAS, and probe. <http://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/surface.html> Possible reasons for difference in Pymol, if the ESP map itself is identical: (1) coloring by offset values or not. It has been my general understanding that when programs color the SES by ESP, the default approach is to color by the values one surface-probe radius outward. (2) shape/location of the surface. Is it an SES or SAS, or neither? Pymol surfaces often look more "melty" or smoothed to me than the SES in Chimera/ChimeraX. (3) the exact color-mapping, i.e. which colors at which values. Pymol ESP coloring often uses a duller-looking blue. ------------------------------------------------ All the best, Steve -- Steve Chou

hi, Is there a colorkey command in chimeraX (http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/ContributedSoftware/2dlabels/2dlabels…>)? If it does not exist, is there any alternative other than using chimera and photoshop? Thanks Roberto

Is color command slower in ChimeraX than Chimera?

Hi, I'm testing driving ChimeraX (or Chimera) from Jalview, in particular colouring structures using the Jalview alignment residue colouring. Ideally this should perform well at scale for large numbers of structures and/or colours (for example a graduated colouring based on some property). I've noticed that ChimeraX appears to do this slower than Chimera. Is there a reason, or something I should do to make the command faster? Here's an example like for like comparison using the Chimera/X command line (also attached as a text file): Chimera 1.15 (build 42156) > open cifID:4zho cifID:5h92 cifID:1a70 cifID:4zhp > focus >
