[chimerax-users] electrostatic surface of docking model

Hi Matteo,
	I guess my suggestion is to use a text editor to split the chains into two PDB files.  Then open those files in ChimeraX and use the "combine" command to combine them into a single model ("combine #1-2 close true").  That will rename one of the chains to 'B'.  You could then save the combined model as a new PDB ("save some_folder/combined.pdb").

>> Hi Matteo,
>> I guess you need to figure out why there is a hydrogen bonded to the backbone C of residue 244.  The C of an amino acid shouldn't have any hydrogens bonded to it.  If you wanted, you  could send the structure to me and I'd try to offer further insight as to what is happening (I don't have permission to access your job via the link you included).
