Is there a way to open the results from CastP results in 'ChimeraX' and visualise the surfaces calculated using CastP? In this case, the pdb is 3cx5, and the surfaces are calculated from CastP webserver.

Just on using Chimera (version 1.15c) - I have also tried to open the CastP results using 'Chimera', but the molecular surfaces display are failing (picture attached). I followed up the abberant surface-calculation problems in https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/surfprobs.html.

However, the display surfaces are all still failing - I tried the first 2 suggestions relevant to mine, but they are still failing. The first - which involves splitting the chain using the command 'split', shuts down the Castp: surfaces-window in Chimera and I can't see of a way to retrieve this CastP window with the list of surfaces.

As, I do not want to split the model, I tried the second suggestion of 'surfcat one' (as CastP server selects atoms from multiple chains to create surfaces).

I am not sure if I want to mess up with the Vanderwaal radii (the third suggestion) either, as these surfaces were calculated in CastP with a specific probe radius.

Would you have any suggestions of how to use ChimeraX to open and analyse molecular surfaces calculated by CastP? Last, but not the least, if suppose you have to end up using Chimera if ChimeraX doesn't support .poc files, could you please suggest this work-around for opening these problematic CastP-calculated-surfaces in Chimera?

Thanks
