You might also be interested in the supercell
http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Supercell pymol script, which
generates all chains in the unit cell as opposed to within some radius of
the asymmetric unit.

 What I do now is look up the correct symmetry and translation operator in
 COOT or PYMOL and input that in PDBSET, but there may be easier ways.

 in the CCP4bb archive I found the following tip for COOT:

 Extensions - Modelling - Symm Shift Reference Chain Here.

 but that does not appear to be available in COOT, or not anymore.

Hi Mark,
If the structure has been deposited in the PDB you can download the 
biological assembly - even works for viruses, cheers, Matt.

If you mean generation of pdb coordinates of specific symmetry chains (not

Hello Mark,

you can 'File - Save Symmetry Coordinates' and reload the PDB file.

In my Coot 0.8.2-pre, revision 5628, Extensions - Modelling - Symm
Shift Reference Chain Here is available works.

Yes, Save Symmetry Coordinates in COOT is a very easy way.  To avoid text 
editing, you can first reload the pdb and use the Copy Fragment ... under 
Extensions/Modeling to get the desired chains.  Then use the Merge Molecules 
under Calculate to assemble.
