Dear
ChimeraX developers,
I am trying to map sequence conservation onto a protein structure. I am using ChimeraX version (version 1.4 (2022-06-03).
It seems that some the tools mentioned in this tutorial are no longer available, or maybe work differently. Specifically, the tutorial's "Case 4" (calculating values outside
of
Chimera but showing them in Chimera) has you set an attribute, and then render/color the structure based on the attribute.
The Tools > Structure Analysis > Define attribute mentioned in the tutorial
is no longer available. I was as able to assign values directly to structure residues in a text file and
read it in using the command defattr instead. The next step would
be to use the tool Render by Attribute for coloring but I cannot find this option anymore.
Is there a different command I can use for this step, or a new functionality built into ChimeraX I could use for my purpose of mapping sequence conservation onto the structure?
One relevant point is that I already have my sequence identify values calculated from another program, and I want to import those values.
Thank you in advance for your help,
Andrea
