Sreekala, You want to 'split_states'. Load the biological unit into Pymol then run 'split_states'.
Check out the PyMolWiki: http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Split_States where it's described more fully. -- Jason On Mon, 2005-08-01 at 20:22 -0700, pymol-users-requ...@lists.sourceforge.net wrote: > Hello, > > I am trying to view the dimeric structure of the aspartate receptor > = > (1VLS) in pymol.
