Re: [chimerax-users] rename a ligand from UNK 999
Dear ChimeraX users, When i add a pdb file to chimera , the resulting model displays the ligand as UNK 999 and when i am having multiple models , it will help to be able to edit the UNK to name the ligand. is there a way to do it ? thanks , amith
Hi Amith, If it was just one file, I would probably just text-edit the residue name in the PDB file before opening it. However, if you would rather avoid text-editing the file or you need to process a large number of files, you can do it in ChimeraX with a "setattr" command. For example, to rename all residues named UNK to LIG instead: setattr :UNK residues name LIG See <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/setattr.html> I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.
