[Chimera-users] Making oligomers from Alphafold predictions

Hi Smith,

Do you know the symmetry of the oligomer you are trying to make?  Is it just a matter of applying positions that you already know?  Or do you need some computational protein-protein docking to figure it out (a vastly harder problem)?  If you know the symmetry you want the Chimera and ChimeraX sym command can place copies of a structure using standard symmetries or a list of position matrices (rotation + translation).
