[chimerax-users] Create Complete Oligomers

[Samuel Kyobe]

Dear ChimeraX

We have a protein NLRX1 which functions as a trimer, however only the terminal component of this trimer has been experimentally resolved (3UN9) and in alpha fold the complete monomer of NLRX1 has been predicted (Q86UT6).

Is it possible to build a complete trimer of NLRX1 starting with the partial X-ray resolved structure as a reference using ChimeraX and the alphafold model. 

We would like to use the complete structure for MD studies.

Thank you

Samuel
