Helllo:
I used SALIGN to obtain alignment / superposition of peptides. On the
SALIGN webpage there is a link for Launch Chimera. When I click this I get
a download of a file named "show.chimerax". Then nothing happens. The
file contents appear to be directing ChimeraX to the data on the web and
are as follows:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ChimeraPuppet type="std_webdata">
<web_files>
<file name="alignment.pir" format="text" loc="
https://modbase.compbio.ucsf.edu/salign/results.cgi/job_225330/str-str_out.ali?passwd=lLzU3A8rBT"
/>
<file name="model1_fit.pdb" format="text" loc="
https://modbase.compbio.ucsf.edu/salign/results.cgi/job_225330/model1_fit.pdb?passwd=lLzU3A8rBT"
/>
<file name="model2_fit.pdb" format="text" loc="
https://modbase.compbio.ucsf.edu/salign/results.cgi/job_225330/model2_fit.pdb?passwd=lLzU3A8rBT"
/>
<file name="model3_fit.pdb" format="text" loc="
https://modbase.compbio.ucsf.edu/salign/results.cgi/job_225330/model3_fit.pdb?passwd=lLzU3A8rBT"
/>
<file name="model4_fit.pdb" format="text" loc="
https://modbase.compbio.ucsf.edu/salign/results.cgi/job_225330/model4_fit.pdb?passwd=lLzU3A8rBT"
/>
</web_files>
<commands>
<py_cmd>chimera.processNewMolecules(chimera.openModels.list(modelTypes=[chimera.Molecule]))</py_cmd>
<py_cmd>import MultAlignViewer</py_cmd>
<py_cmd>mols = chimera.openModels.list()</py_cmd>
<py_cmd>
m=chimera.extension.manager
for i in m.instances:
if isinstance(i, MultAlignViewer.MAViewer.MAViewer):
mav = i
</py_cmd>
<py_cmd>
for m in mols:
if not m in mav.associations.keys():
mav.associate([m])
mav.match(mols[0], mols[1:], iterate=True)</py_cmd>
</commands>
</ChimeraPuppet>
What am I supposed to do with this file. ChimeraX does not have a file
extension .ChimeraX hence I do not know how to proceed next. Can anyone
help? Thanks in advance.
