[Chimera-users] visualising electron density map

[Neha Gandhi]

Dear Support,

I have downloaded pdb file 3j5r and also downloaded corresponding electron
density map from EMD (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/pdbe/entry/EMD-5777). The
microscopy structure was done in presence of the ligand and the original
paper reports electron density for the ligand (Extended figure 7 -
http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v504/n7478/fig_tab/nature12823_SF7.html).
However,  the authors couldn't model the orientation of ligand in the
binding site.

I have docked the ligand in the binding site and I am trying to visualize
if the docked ligand fits well in the electron density or not. Is there a
way to visualise the electron density only for the ligand in UCSF chimera
as reported in the above nature paper?


Thank you for kind attention,

Awaiting your reply,
