I just tried this and the volumes look great. This looks like a really useful web-based tool. Here's how to do it. Download their file and decompress it: gunzip yourFile.mrc.gz. Then load it into PyMOL as: load yourFile.mrc, format=ccp4 The map data are most likely not a normal distribution, so I suggest unsetting normalize_ccp4_maps, before loading: unset normalize_ccp4_maps At this point, the idea of a map "level" is no longer valid (since the maps are not normalized). But, that's the only way to change the representation, so use the 'isolevel' command (http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Isolevel). This should be documented on the PyMOLWiki somewhere under 3rd Party Tools (or web servers).
