[Chimera-users] measuring RMSD

[Elaine Meng]

Hi Vani,
If you already superimposed the structures the way you want, now you can use command “rmsd” to measure RMSDs between sets of atoms without moving them.  See “rmsd” manual page for examples:
<http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/rmsd.html>

In case you might be interested, different ways to superimpose structures are discussed here:
<http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/superposition.html>

You can also search for help topics using menu: Help… Search Documentation, for example for “rmsd"
I hope this helps,
Elaine
