[chimerax-users] Specify unmodelled residues

[Jaremko, Matt Joseph]

Thanks Elaine,

Do you know of an easy way to convert .fasta to the SEQRES format?

Thanks,
Matt

    Hello Matt,
    The full sequence of what was used in the experiment (crystallography, NMR, ...)  comes from the SEQRES records in a PDB file:
    <https://www.wwpdb.org/documentation/file-format-content/format33/sect3.html#SEQRES>

    Those residues included in the SEQRES but without corresponding atomic coordinates will automatically be shown with the black outline box in the sequence window.  If you open a PDB file that doesn't have SEQRES records, the sequence window will only reflect what was read from the coordinates.

    I hope this helps,
    Elaine
