ChimeraX-1.7.dev202311052311-Ramachandran Plots
by Berkay Ekren 15 Nov '23

15 Nov '23

Hello, FIrst of all, I have been using Chimera for 3-4 years, now, and I would like to thank you for your efforts in the development of Chimera and ChimeraX. Recently, I decided to move to ChimeraX, and stay updated by using the bleeding edge daily version. However, I haven't been able to see the Ramachandran Plots option in either the Model Panel or the Tools section of ChimeraX. Is the Ramachandran Plots function removed from the program? Or is it just that I haven't looked at the correct path. This is a Linux installation in Debian 12 (used Ubuntu 22.04 deb package) It would be great if you could direct me to the right direction. Thank you in advance, I am looking forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience. --Berkay Y. Ekren PhD candidate in Biostatistics and Bioinformatics

ChimeraX on Apple M1
by Dennis Dannecker 15 Nov '23

15 Nov '23

Hello, I have a question regarding running ChimeraX on Apple's M1 chip. About two years ago (Nov 2, 2021), there was a post by Tom announcing the development of a version of ChimeraX that would run natively on Apple M1 instead of emulting for the Intel processor. Looking in the download section, I see such a native version is now regularly released. However, I am wondering what is the differen between the "macOS M1 or M2" and "macOS". While the former is only for M1 and M2, the latter on is for M1, M2, and Intel Macs, this one is also quite larger in size. If one is working on a macOS M1 (or M2) machine, is it correct to go for the "macOS M1 or M2"? Would that correspond to natively running ChimeraX and provide the best possible performance, or should one always go for the "macOS" release? I am currently updating my hardware, and since I am working quite a bit with ChimeraX, I would like to also inform my decisions based on the available ChimeraX releases. Thank you very much. Best regards Dennis Dennis Dannecker Master Student of Biochemistry Department of Chemistry Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences University of Cologne Albertus-Magnus-Platz 50923 Cologne, Germany

Not able to see Glycines in stick form
by Firdous Tarique 14 Nov '23

14 Nov '23

Hi everyone In ChimeraX I am not able to show Gly simultaneously as a stick and cartoon. If I am trying to show Gly as a stick then the cartoon line breaks up at this position. And this is for any of the structures if you see. By showing a cartoon and stick together, the sticks for all amino acids show up except for Gly where it remains in the cartoon (you can try that). My aim is to show the thioester bond between Gly and Cys of two chains which I am able to create in Coot through Molecule Link but not able to see in ChimeraX. The moment I am trying to show Gly in stick form at this position it breaks the cartoon. I realised that this is for all the Glycines in the structure. Showing stick and cartoon together shows all amino acids in the stick except Glycine. (However this is not the case in Pymol and Chimera). Do you know any tricks to fix that in ChimeraX? Best Firdous

Re: [ccpem] Making thioester bond in Chimera/ChimeraX
by Elaine Meng 13 Nov '23

13 Nov '23

Hi Firdous, No trick, it is an option of cartoon (on by default) to prevent showing backbone atoms at the same time. Glycine only has backbone atoms (no sidechain). If you really want to show cartoon and backbone atoms at the same, use cartoon suppress false This is explained in the "cartoon" or "ribbon" command help. Just type command "help cartoon" to see your downloaded copy of the help page, or see the copy on our website here: <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/cartoon.html> The full name of the option is "suppressBackboneDisplay" but you can shorten all options in commands as long as there is no other option that starts with the same letters. Actually Chimera ribbon also hides backbone atoms by default, although you can allow showing both at the same time with the Chimera "ribbackbone" command. The best address to use for ChimeraX questions is the chimerax-users one that I CC'd on this message, unless you are including data that must be kept private.

Zooming in and out in ChimeraX
by Dale Calleja 09 Nov '23

09 Nov '23

Hello, I am currently learning to use ChimeraX (v1.6.1) and I am having issues with my scroll wheel. I notice when I first open the software using the scroll wheel on my mouse will zoom in and out of the structure but, after some time it simply stops working and the scroll wheel does nothing. Is this a button I am accidentally pressing or have I discovered a bug? It doesn’t seem to have any pattern, I am just clicking around changing the display of my protein. Thanks! Dale.

ui mousemode right when in ISOLDE
by Alexis Rohou 09 Nov '23

09 Nov '23

Hi there, Wondering if anyone else gets this behavior: When ISOLDE is running, setting the right mouse click to translate selected atoms does NOT associate shift-right-click with rotating selected atoms; instead, shift-right click does a zoom. In addition, if I try to force it by issuing the two commands below, the shift right click still isn't a rotate selected atom; instead, it does a translate selected atoms. ui mousemode right "translate selected atoms" ui mousemode shift right "rotate selected atoms" My workaround is to use alt-right for rotating instead. That does work: ui mousemode right "translate selected atoms" ui mousemode alt right "rotate selected atoms" This is with ChimeraX 1.6.1, but I'm pretty sure I noticed this behavior in earlier versions also. Tristan recently posted a screen capture where it's clear he doesn't have this problem, but he's on Windows and I'm on Mac, so I wonder whether that might have something to do with it. Any ideas? Cheers, Alexis

Custom calculation of forcefields for ligands in Isolde
by Paul Sauer 09 Nov '23

09 Nov '23

Dear ChimeraX and Isolde experts, I am trying to parameterize a ligand in Isolde 1.6 in order to fit it into my density. The ligand conforms to the requirements that are outlined in the manual (not covalently bound, only consists of certain elements, etc). However, parameterizing the residue using the inbuilt ANTECHAMBER/AMBER utility times out unfortunately, with an error saying that convergence in SCF cannot be reached. Upon investigating the issue I learned that it could be possible to avoid this error with adjusted command line parameters for AMBER in order to let it run longer for correct values. My question is: Is it possible to pass custom flags or command line arguments from Isolde to AMBER in ChimeraX? And if yes, how? The default command ‘Isolde parameterize residue’ does not seem to have any AMBER specific options. For example, how can I add 'adding ndiis_attempts=700’ (or other modifications) to my input sqm file? Thank you in advance, Paul

How to refine a symmetric model with ISOLDE
by Guillaume Gaullier 09 Nov '23

09 Nov '23

Hello, A question for Tristan, since I know you read this list. :-) I have a cryoEM map that was produced with C7 symmetry enforced. I can fit the alphafold prediction of one protomer, and am pretty confident in this initial rigid fit because the map is good. Now with Tom's help I know how to generate the C7 symmetric assembly and store the symmetry info in a cif file with a single protomer, so I can regenerate the heptamer as needed (and this seems like the correct way to deposit the end result). But this model still needs proper refinement: the rigid fit shows that the conformation predicted by alphafold deviates from the map at several locations. What is a sensible refinement strategy for something like this? Because symmetry was enforced for the map, I am inclined to refine only a single protomer and add the correct symmetry info that will regenerate the heptamer. But don't I need the neighboring protomers during refinement, for the interface residues to behave correctly during MDFF? I would think so. Not sure what to do, some advice would be very helpful.

How to write biological assembly info in PDB or mmCIF?
by Guillaume Gaullier 08 Nov '23

08 Nov '23

Hello, I have a cryoEM map that was generated with C7 symmetry enforced, with its symmetry axis parallel to the z axis in ChimeraX. I fetched a prediction from AlphaFoldDB and docked it in the map. So far, so good. I can generate the other protomers with a command like this: sym #1 C7 axis z center cofr (assuming #1 is the single protomer from AlphaFoldDB, and the cofr is correctly lying on the symmetry axis, which I get sufficiently close if I center the view on the map) Now, because symmetry was enforced for the map, it makes no sense to model, refine and store the entire heptamer. I should be able to do everything with a single protomer, and store relevant info as "biological assembly" so the heptamer can be regenerated from the protomer. At least if I am understanding this correctly. I tried the above command, or this variant: sym #1 C7 axis z center cofr addMmcifAssembly true And subsequently saving in PDB or mmCIF format, but none of this produces what I want, which is a file containing the single protomer + assembly info. I either get a file with the single protomer or a file with the heptamer, in both cases without any biological assembly info. I looked up the options of the save command for PDB and mmCIF format, but found nothing that seemed relevant to this problem. Is there a way to do this? Or am I misunderstanding something? Related question: it might make sense to use the whole heptamer for refinement, so all interfaces between protomers "see" each other (probably important when using ISOLDE). What is the best way to deal with this? Build and refine the whole heptamer and save only a single protomer + assembly info at the very end? Or have the symmetry enforced from the beginning, throughout the whole refinement process, and really ever refine a single protomer? (7 times less work, so probably the preferred option).

Alphafold2_multimer on chimeraX
by Margulies, David (NIH/NIAID) [E] 08 Nov '23

08 Nov '23

Beginning yesterday, I have had repeated failure of alphafold2_multimer running through chimerax to generate models of two protein complexes (Ab H cand L chains, for instance). Individual chains work fine. The error from Colab AI says: The error is due to a bug in the ColabFold library. The kabsch function in the colabfold.py file is using the linalg.svd function to calculate the singular value decomposition of a matrix. However, the linalg.svd function is not guaranteed to converge, and in some cases it can fail to converge. This can cause the kabsch function to fail, and in turn cause the plot_protein_backbone function to fail. The bug has been fixed in the latest version of the ColabFold library, which is available on GitHub. To fix the error, you can upgrade to the latest version of the library. You can do this by running the following command in the Colab notebook: content_copy !pip install colabfold --upgrade Use code with caution<https://g.co/legal/generative-code> Once you have upgraded to the latest version of the library, you can run the code again and the error should be fixed. Can you advise? Thanks for your help. D David H.

Dynamic bonds
by Michael Patzschke 06 Nov '23

06 Nov '23

Dear colleagues, I have a trajectory from an ab initio MD run. The output is in the form of concatenated .xyz information. I can open and visualise this in ChimeraX, but the bond topology is determined from the first step. As the simulation progresses, bonds are stretched and the broken bond in my example just gets drawn, although the distance of the involved atoms gets larger then 7 Å by the end of the simulation. Is there a way to use dynamic bonds in ChimeraX? By this I mean that the bonds are only drawn when the distance of the involved atoms is below a certain threshold. I would appreciate any help in the matter. Kind regards, Michael Patzschke

Hi, I was wondering if there is a command line in chimeraX to hide a region of the map. To be more specific if I have to hide map around a model #1 chain A, how could I do that? Also, using the same case how do I set a transparency of 50% for the map around the chainA model #1? Actually, I want to make a movie of the vseries where I need to hide/delete/transparent some portion of the map to show the internal details of the map while playing the vseries. Any suggestions are welcome. Best

Middle mouse click to center and move to atom
by Adrián González López 27 Oct '23

Hi, I do not know if this is possible already (I could not find it), but is there a way in ChimeraX to set the middle click mouse button (or any other button) to center and orient the atom you click? Similar to what happens on PyMOL by default. This helps so much when navigating around a structure. I know you can do it in some other way, but it takes more time and it is not so user-friendly. If there is no way to do this, could it be implemented? Many thanks! Best, Adrián När du har kontakt med oss på Uppsala universitet med e-post så innebär det att vi behandlar dina personuppgifter.

Is it possible to have atoms or bonds capped when they are truncated by a near clipping plane, similar to how surfaces can be capped. Currently, you can see the interior polygons when you clip the middle of a molecule. See the attached image for an example. I tried to search the mailing list and the documentations, but could not find anything.

Re: Selection with coordinates
by Tom Goddard 25 Oct '23

25 Oct '23

Hi Siyoung, The movie recording needs a "wait" command to actually render frames. If you have 300 frames in your coordinate set it would be perframe "open select_atoms.py" movie record coordset #1 wait 300 movie encode test.mp4 Also I would suggest that your python code not use "atom.hide". That is an obscure attribute for hiding backbone atoms with ribbon display. Instead use atom.display = True atom.display = False It might be possible to record the movie entirely in Python, but I've never tried it. I would not suggest trying that approach unless you want to waste a lot of time since the movie recording code was not designed to work in a Python script.

ISOLDE error: Please remove “TER” card after the single residue
by Dmitry Semchonok 25 Oct '23

25 Oct '23

Dear colleagues, I have an issue with the validation website after working with my model in ISOLDE. More detailed: When starting the simulation in ISOLDE, I am running into the error: At least one residue in your model does not match any templates in the MD forcefield. This may be due to missing or superfluous atoms, or an unusual residue that has not yet been parametrized. Launching the unparameterized residue widget to help sort this out. So certain ligand info is missing (MYR). Then appears the window that allows me to add the information about this ligand and proceed with the refinement. After finishing refinement in ChimeraX/ISOLDE, I loaded the model and the map on https://validate-rcsb-1.wwpdb.org/. But this website showed me the error: File upload failed. Please review the errors below and try again. Coordinates issues. ERROR: Please remove “TER” card after the single residue “MYR A 1” in line 136 and upload the file again. Some more observations: Although MYR is the first residue in the ChimeraX sequence, it is not visible. At the same time, COOT can see it. Please let me know how I can proceed with the https://validate-rcsb-1.wwpdb.org/ after refinement with ISOLDE. Please let me know if you require a model/map file for the investigation. Thank you Kind regards, Dmitry

Distinct clipping planes per model
by Dorien Pastoors 24 Oct '23

24 Oct '23

Hi, Thanks for maintaining such a nice software package! I'm still learning, and I'm currently stuck on clipping. I'm trying to clip models differently in ChimeraX. My aim is to have a global clipping plane to visualize two drugs binding to two domains (in the image in yellow/blue). Now I would like to offset the clipping plane slightly for surrounding protein (in beige). I would like to do this to increase the depth in my image and to emphasize that these domains are embedded in a bigger protein. As it is in fact a huge protein (its an alphafold predicted structure) making the entire protein transparent will still obscure the view on the compounds in their domains. As you can see, by using clip model I've been able to turn off clipping for the drugs in their binding pockets. However, with clip model I can only switch on or off the entire clipping plane , not offset it for a particular model. I've tried: clip model #2.3 front -10 clip model #2.3 offset -10 With clip model I can't specify an offset as it gives an error, I can only turn clipping off completely with "clip model #2.3 false", while "clip front -10" affects the total clipping plane, and I cannot specify a particular model for this clipping plane. (the beige protein model is #2.3) Hope this is clear enough and you have a solution! Thanks in advance! Kind regards, Dorien Pastoors

Image rendering artifacts with silhouettes and pixelSize value
by Vorländer,Matthias Kopano 24 Oct '23

24 Oct '23

Dear ChimeraX team, I am having issues when using silhouettes and saving an image while specifying the pixel size, as I get the artefacts shown in the attached image. If I don’t use silhouettes or don’t specify the pixel size things look fine. I updated to the latest daily version and uninstalled Isolde and ArtiaX, but the problem persist. I work on a MacBook Pro under Mac OS Ventura 13.5.2. Any ideas for fixes? Many thanks, Matthias [A white structure with colorful strands Description automatically generated with medium confidence]

Morphing problem
by Raphael Bader 23 Oct '23

23 Oct '23

Dear all, I would like to ask for some information/help for a problem I am facing at the moment: I am currently working on a pentameric protein (C5 symmetric) that undergoes a big conformational change (translational & rotational movement) and would like to utilize the morph function in ChimeraX to come up with a good animation for it. For one single protomer the animation works fine – however, for the full pentamer the subunits follow both directions, clockwise and counterclockwise, during their rotational movement which obviously leads to a lot of clashes and therefore does not look very convincing. Since I tried almost all options listed as parameters for the morph (linear & corkscrew method, cartesian true and false, rates, coreFraction, etc.) and it did not affect the direction of rotation at all, I was wondering whether there are additional values I could modify or any other trick that might equalize the movement? Thank you very much in advance! Best regards, Raphael P.S.: I would be happy to provide data if it might help solving the problem.

Hi Qiancheng Xia, Please use the chimerax-users(a)cgl.ucsf.edu address (CC'd here) for ChimeraX questions so that people don't get mixed up between Chimera and ChimeraX. Chimera does not have the reportMatrix option. As for ChimeraX, you didn't show the exact command that you tried so I can only guess what went wrong. My guess is that you need to include "reportMatrix true" not just "reportMatrix" <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/matchmaker.html#options> I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.

I know that matchmaker can superimpose them together, but I still want to obtain the transformation matrix. I've noticed that matchmaker in chimerax (https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/matchmaker.html) offer a keyword "reportMatrix" to do that. But when I use that keyword in chimerax, "Expected a keyword" will be returned without match or a matrix. > With Regards, > > Qiancheng Xia > > National Institute of Biological Sciences > > Beijing, China > > 2023/10/20 >

Surface calculation in ChimeraX
by Dennis Dannecker 20 Oct '23

20 Oct '23

Hello Chimera/ChimeraX team I recently asked already a question regarding the saving/exporting of vertices generated during the surface calculation in ChimeraX and the associated parameters with this surface generation. On a related note, I wanted to ask whether it is possible to also extract the surface (SESA and/or SASA) on a per atom basis. MSMS calculates not only the vertices for each atom (usually several vertices per atom) but it also calculates the SESA and SASA on a per atom basis. Now, I was wondering whether something is possible in ChimeraX too. As I was parsing through the docs, I was wondering whether ChimeraX calculates the surface no longer using MSMS. The vertices density supported by ChimeraX is considerably higher than what I can get with my standalone MSMS program (at least factor 6). So, if ChimeraX does not longer employ MSMS, what else does it use? With "MEASURE CONVEXITY" I get the surface vertex positions, normals, convexity values, and triangles. Unfortunately, the association with the corresponding residue is lost (however, can be regained with a little bit of work I guess, simply using euclidean distance). Question: Is there something similar for the SESA or SASA of the different atoms in the model/chain. In theory, this information should be available, at least the SESA. I am just wondering whether there is a way to write this out as a raw txt file in ChimeraX The closest I found in the save command is the .obj or .vtk format. However, both are semi-satisfying in that that they both do not provide the data looked for and are in somewhat special formats, at least the vtk. The .obj file is much much bigger than what MSMS or "measure convexity" generates, and not really handy for then working with the data in other programs, mainly python. As always, I very much appreciate any help and wish to thank the team for their contributions to the field. Best regards Dennis
