[chimerax-users] Pair-fitting in ChimeraX

[Rachael Coleman]

Hello again,

You guys were so helpful last time I figured I'd just ask for help again!
I'm trying to do something that I know is a feature in PyMol but I'm not
sure if it is a feature in ChimeraX (yet). In PyMol, there is a function to
pair fit over specific atoms between two different structures. I have tried
using the Matchmaker tool in ChimeraX to do this, but I think the dilemma
is I'm trying to align the protein relative to the position of specific
atoms in a heme cofactor across two different structures and that isn't
something in the primary sequence of the protein. I also could just be
doing something wrong in the matchmaker process. Do you know if there is an
easy way to accomplish this in ChimeraX?

Best regards,

Rachael Coleman
