Hi,
not certain to understand the question. In chimera, you can create axis
(for example in alpha helix) or directly draw one and do the angle
measurement between differents axis. I imagine that you can create the
"same axis" in both of your monomer and measure the angle between these
axis.

Hi All
I am interested to measure the symmetry axis of individual sub-unit
(chain A & chain B)
along with the symmetry axis of the heterdimer (AB). Each chain is
also 2 fold axis, and I
can measure by removing 1 chain and measure for the other and then
combine all the symmetry
axis in the 1 PDB file. Is there is a way to do it with out removing
the either chain.
I'm not sure that I fully understood the question, but you could try
Coot's
superpose_with_atom_selection, where you can specify the residue
selection for the superposition
e.g.
Calculate -> Scripting -> Python
superpose_with_atom_selection(0, 0, '//A/1-200', '//A/201-400', 1)
will produce output like this:
| 0.9705, -0.0469, -0.2365|
| 0.2359, 0.3887, 0.8907|
| 0.05015, -0.9202, 0.3883|
