I have mad a lot of these pictures, and the solution is to create two objects for the substrate.
object1, displayed as sticks in the desired color, and object2 dipslayed as spheres in the desired color(s) and then "set sphere_scale, 0.3, object2" Example (if the file contains a residue named "NAD") load molecule.pdb, complex create prot, complex and not resn NAD create nad1, complex and resn NAD create nad2, nad1 disable complex show sticks, nad1 color grey70, nad1 show spheres, nad2 set sphere_scale, 0.3, nad2 Hope this helps Esben > -----Original Message----- > From: pymol-users-ad...@lists.sourceforge.net > [mailto:pymol-users-ad...@lists.sourceforge.net] On Behalf Of Zach > Sent: 18. maj 2004 23:36 > To: pymol-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: [PyMOL] Ball & Stick representation > > > Hello to all, > > I have a protein that contains a substrate and for which I > want to create a picture.
