Hi Elaine, I manage to make the representation of the nanoparticle, but now I would like to link a molecule (from a different pdb) to each chain (C- or N-term) of the nanoparticle, and between both I need to add a link of 10 a.a.. I tried to use the build model but I cannot find the option join models in chimeraX. I hope that you can also help me with that. Please, can you let me know how to make it?

However, you can use the ChimeraX "sym" command, e.g. something like commands: open 1hqk hide solvent style stick sym #1 assembly 1 surfaceOnly true resolution 10 ... but you should look at the "sym" command help because there are lots of options, and you might decide to use different options or different values of the options. Use command "help sym" to see the help page included in your download, or see the copy at our website: <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/sym.html> I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.

Hi, I am having some difficulties in using xchimera, and I would like to ask you if you could help me. I want to make a representation of a virus-like nanoparticle using the pdb 1HQK. I have searched in the tutorial of xchimera but I could not find the general instructions, but I found them in the tutorial of chimera (multiscale model), however, the options are not present in my installation xchimera (and also in my installation of chimera). Then, I thought that maybe you could tell me how to make it in xchimera.
Thank you very much for your attention. Kind regards, Ana
