Dear Ahmed Morsy, ChimeraX does have a Dock Prep tool, <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/tools/dockprep.html> ...but it does not have general minimization, sorry, that is still work in progress. See the short list of features not yet in ChimeraX: <https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/progress.html> There are some features in ChimeraX that can do a little minimization but it is not as complete as in Chimera. See: <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/tools/mousemodes.html#openmm> <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/tug.html> There are dynamics in the ChimeraX ISOLDE plugin, but it may be for advanced users such as cryo-EM structural biologists. <https://cxtoolshed.rbvi.ucsf.edu/apps/chimeraxisolde> I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.

Dear Ahmed, ChimeraX does not calculate TM-Score. You can calculate RMSD, but of course it depends on how the structures are superimposed. The Matchmaker tool and command will do the superposition and also report an RMSD, but the fitting and RMSD only use the CA atoms that were paired by sequence alignment. <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/tools/matchmaker.html> <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/matchmaker.html> If you need to use more atoms for superposition, see the "align" command: <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/align.html> If the structures are already superimposed, you can calculate RMSD over specified atoms using the "rmsd" command: <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/rmsd.html> I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.
