[Chimera-users] rotate a helix

[Maurice Ho]

Hi there,
I would like to rotate a helix at a particular angle.  How could I 
accomplish the following?
1. How to define the central axis of the helix in chimera?
2. How to set a particular angle to rotate?
3. I do this on a helix belonging to a GPCR, with the loops firstly 
broken for rotation and then perhaps need to rejoin them.  How to join 
them back?
4. After joining, should I just redo energy minimization for the loops 
concerned?
Much thanks!
