[Chimera-users] chain selection in a multi-conformatin pdb file.

[Hong Liang]

Hi Chimera fans,

1. If a pdb file contains more then one struture, how can I select and keep
just one and get rid of  the rest.  Such as  1X95.  It is a big mess after
Chimera load the the DNA pdb structure.  How can I leave just  one double
helix?

2. Can Chimera do the extension of DNA.  Such as 1X95 has the hexamer with
the sequence of ATGCAT, can Chimera double it to a dodecamer with a sequence
ATGCATATGCAT?  It Chimera can not do that, do you know which software has
such a function.  I tried PyMol but did not get what I wanted.

Thanks a lot.

Hong
