well.. before I run the simulation, I have a pdb file which contains my reference structure. After md, I create another pdb file with multiple models.

Of course I can merge the 2 files, but that would mean I would need to copy my reference structure as separate chain to every model. In case of a very small protein (30 aa), my multi model pdb is 3.5 MB compressed.

hi Tamas,

are all of your models aligned to your reference structure? if so, you could just add your reference as a separate model in your multi- model file - no need to add it as a chain to every model. Jmol has decent tools to manipulate models. (there are several tools available for aligning models, for example, DeepView.)



I understood it does not work today, but I would like to implement the necessary code... maybe it's not that useless...


hardly useless; many people will throw parties when Jmol can manipulate multiple structures independent of each other. :-) I think Miguel's point is that 1) this is a non-trivial task in itself, 2) it would require a lot of intense programming effort from everyone involved, not just yourself (since it would affect so much of the existing code); and 3) that there might be an easier way to accomplish your goal.

regards,

tim
