[chimerax-users] Global Diffusion Tensor Models

[Gupta, Arun]

Dear ChimeraX team,

I am interested in generating Global diffusion tensor geometry models such as Prolate, Ellipsoid, Oblate or Sphere with overlaid protein PDB or structure of my interest. (As shown in attached pic). I am using diffusion tensor prediction module provided in ROTDIF software (http://gandalf.umd.edu/FushmanLab/pdsw.html) to generate an ellipsoid  diffusion tensor of a protein molecule of my interest.
Is it possible that I can use ROTDIF generated output (Which is in Pymol output format, please find attached ) to open in ChimeraX with my protein PDB, to render such representative figure ?
Thanks!!!

Arun
