Hi Andrea, If the pixel size is not defined in the header of the .mrc file if your EM map, chimera will use a default 1A/px. You can set correct pixel size using volume command with voxelSize option. For instance, if the target EM map is volume #1 and pixel size 1.5A, use volume #1 voxelSize 1.5 Best. Oleksiy

Hi,
I have an EM map -from a cryoET experiment- and I would like to use ChimeraX in order to fit the protein -the ribosome, in this case- in such EM map. I don't understand why the PDB of the ribosome I open in ChimeraX is far bigger than the EM map I have, and I don't really know how to resize them in order to have a fittable model. Could you suggest me a solution? Thank you for your help and attention,
