Hi Hally,
Thank you for your reply! Could you tell me how to save the alignment result to a new .pdb file?
Thanks again!

Best,
Linda

To align two proteins, they have to have the same number of atoms. You can
manipulate the pdb files to delete part of one protein or remove a small
molecule ligand if need be. You will need to save the "corrected" pdb files to
load for the alignment.

Attached is a picture of two proteins I aligned (one is in the apo form and the
other is the ligand-bound holo form of the protein). The major difference
between the two is indicated in red. I had to load my two pdb files and then the
ligand (rea) as a separate pdb file. The commands are below.

load 1LBDm.pdb, 1LBD
load 1FBYm.pdb, 1FBY
load REA.pdb, rea

align 1LBD, 1FBY


Good luck,
Hally

Hi all,

Anyone know which algorithm PyMOL uses to align or super of two structures?

Thanks a lot!

Best,
Linda
