Tim, If I understand correctly, you want 'Extensions > Replace Fragment'
>From the manual 11.8.21 replace-fragment — function: replace-fragment imol_target imol_fragment atom_selection Where: • imol_target is an integer number • imol_fragment is an integer number • atom_selection is a string replace the parts of molecule number imol that are duplicated in molecule number imol_frag I haven't gotten it to work from said menu (I am sure I'm missing something stupid), but it works quite well from the scripting menu. For example (Scheme), (replace-fragment 1 '/2/A/50-60') replaces residues A50-60 in molecule 1 with those from molecule 2. Hope that helps.
