Re: [ccp4bb]: Symmetry superposition

[Laurence Pearl]

the PyMol 'align' function is pretty powerful and doesn't care about numbering so long as there is enough sequence homology between the models to start the alignment process.   On 15 May 2006, at 10:00, Phil Evans wrote: ***  For details on how to be removed from this list visit the  *** ***          CCP4 home page http://www.ccp4.ac.uk         *** Is there a program somewhere which will give me the best symmetry operation to superimpose two molecules? I'm trying to compare different autobuilds where the different programs have built different asymmetric units (sometimes for different fragments). The residues numbering is random of course. I've tried  Coot, but the writing out of symmetry-related coordinates is currently broken,  ccp4mg  but I don't seem to be able to get symmetry-related neighbours of molecule 1 (say) around the position of molecule 2, only around its own position any suggestions?
