Export list of contacts
by Asmahan Alghamdi 12 Sep '22

12 Sep '22

Dear Chimerax team, Thanks a lot for the extremely useful software that has been helping a great deal in improving my protein complex investigations. Recently I succeeded in using version 1.5 to determine contacts and the correlated confidence but exporting that list of contact not clear to me yet although searched within software guide and tutorials available online. Your help would be much appreciated in this respect.

inquiry about label the residues of pseudo bonds
by Jiaqiao Zhou 12 Sep '22

12 Sep '22

Dear Chimerax users, I am trying to analyze the results of AF2 predictions. I used the "alphafold contacts" command to the interfacing residues, then several pseudobonds are displayed. "label sel pseudobonds" shows the length of the bonds, but I want to show the residue name the number that makes the pseudobonds. Actually, I found that in the label mode of right mouse, it shows the residue name and the number. However, I have to do it one by one. So I am wondering if there are any easier ways. Another question is about the "alphafold contacts" command itself, I want to know the definition of "distance of residues". Is it the distance of the centroid, the average distance of heavy atoms of the residues. or some other ways of determining the distance between two residues? Thanks in advance.

How to update the bonding status in a molecular trajectory?
by 洪冉 12 Sep '22

12 Sep '22

Dear ChimeraX developers and users, I tried to use ChimeraX to visualize my MD trajectory and I found some bonds were stretched very long and weird, see below In VMD, I could fix this phenomenon using updatebond features, could anybody tell me how to enable this feature in ChimeraX? Many thanks in advance. Ran hong hongran(a)ahpu.edu.cn Anhui polytechnic university Wuhu, China, 241000

2D plots and graphs for protein-ligand interactions
by Enrico Martinez 09 Sep '22

09 Sep '22

Dear ChimeraX users! I am dealing with the analysis of protein-ligand interactions in a single PDB structure. I am looking for any tools implemented in Chimera-X, which could be used to analyse the interactions (besides the hbond and contact tools giving info in the log files). I wonder to know which commands and corresponded ChimeraX tools could be used to produce the 2D contact diagrams shown on the Fig.4 as well as python graphs demonstrated on the Fig.5 in the Chimera-X article: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5734306/ Many thanks in advance! Cheers Enrico

Create Complete Oligomers
by Samuel Kyobe 09 Sep '22

09 Sep '22

Dear ChimeraX We have a protein NLRX1 which functions as a trimer, however only the terminal component of this trimer has been experimentally resolved (3UN9) and in alpha fold the complete monomer of NLRX1 has been predicted (Q86UT6). Is it possible to build a complete trimer of NLRX1 starting with the partial X-ray resolved structure as a reference using ChimeraX and the alphafold model. We would like to use the complete structure for MD studies. Thank you Samuel

Visualization of the carbon - Cl bond in a small molecule
by Enrico Martinez 09 Sep '22

09 Sep '22

Dear ChimeraX users! I have an issue with the visualization of the small molecule obtained from the tleap module of the amber tools. First of all in vmd and pymol everything looks OK. In the ChimeraX there is no bond between atom CL of the ligand and the aromatic C atom. I've tried to change atom type for the CL: setattr :lig@CL1 atoms idatm_type CL show :lig@* but the bond is still absent. Would it be possible to rebuild it manually? Cheers, Enrico
