<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Hi Elaine,</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Thanks for getting back to me so promptly. Please find below the google drive link for the files. I am describing what I have in the folder: I have downloaded the model 5IRE from PDB website (filename:5ire.pdb) and applied
phenix to operate on the transformation matrix (BIOMT record in REMARK 350) to generate the icosahedral complete virus (filename:5ire_BIOMT_expanded.pdb). Now, phenix has used two letter IDs for the chains and these chain IDs get changed when I open <span style="font-size: 10pt;">5ire_BIOMT_expanded.pdb
in Chimera1.12. I have then resaved the file again using Chimera1.12 and this file is named as chimera-saved.pdb. </span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><br>
</span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">This is just an example case and it closely matches my problem. In real scenario, I need to use fit in map option in chimera and move the coordinates, so there is no way I can avoid "opening
my model in chimera and resave them in new position". </span></p>

<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Kindly suggest after going through the files !</span></p>

<div class="PlainText">Hi Tofayel,<br>
Not being a phenix user, I may need more specifics, like:<br>
<br>
- are you getting a single PDB file of the whole capsid from applying the biomt in phenix, and opening that single PDB file in Chimera?<br>
- does that file have more than one chain with the same ID, or chain IDs with multiple characters?<br>
- is the chain ID different as soon as you read the structure in to Chimera, or is it only different when you write to an output file?<br>
- are you saving as Chimera session or writing a single PDB file?<br>
<br>
I know the capsid in your example has many chains, so I can only guess that in the file from phenix, there are either duplicate chain IDs or chain IDs with more characters than Chimera or PDB format allow.
<br>
<br>
One idea is to try using ChimeraX instead. It can write mmCIF format. However, with my limited understanding of what is happening (sorry), I don’t know if that would solve your problem.<br>
Best regards,<br>
Elaine<br>

problem, here I have taken an example from PDB so that you get the idea. If I take model bearing PDB id 5IRE and apply "phenix.pdb.biomt_reconstruction" I can generate the complete virus icosahedral structure from the asymmetric unit. But when I open this
complete virus structure in Chimera and save it back again the chain IDs get changed. Is there any work around to maintain the original chain IDs and therefore maintain the secondary structure definitions in the file header, after opening and thereafter saving
using Chimera?<br>
