extraction of certain cryo-em density
Hi Dmitry,
just for the records of the mailing list (as somebody have the same issue):
Load map and model.
Test your selection (this step is not needed, but helps if the selection includes multiple parts) # hide all atoms hide atoms # show your selection. The model is #2, you want to only select chlorophyll from chain A
show #2/A:BCL
This should display just your molecule/residue/ligand of interest. For the selection syntax:
https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/atomspec.html
Now create a new map, just from your molecule volume zone #1 nearAtoms #2/A:BCL newMap true
One can include also the range parameter (default 3.0), e.g. if the molecule placement is a bit unsure and you want to refine it in there.
Now, just save the new map by save mapZone.mrc #3
If you try multiple volume zones, you might need to correct the id.
Best Christian

Dear colleagues,
I have a cryo-em map and a model.
I would like to extract some the cryo-em density around certain fitted model.
For example I have Chl molecule fitted into the correspondent cryo-em density. And I want to extract this certain Chl only out of the whole structure.
How can I do that?
Kind regards, Dmitry
