<div class="PlainText">Hi Arvind,<br>
The most similar thing is to draw a surrounding icosahedron framework of pentagons and hexagons with the Chimera “hkcage” command<br>
<br>
<<a href="http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/hkcage.html">http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/hkcage.html</a>><br>
<br>
…but it does not put each hexagon or pentagon on a separate stick like in the image you sent.<br>
<br>
In the command, you specify the values for h and k (T = h**2 + hk + k**2) and optionally radius and orientation.<br>
I hope this helps,<br>
Elaine<br>
