Hi Bishwa, what you want is to label one representative atom per secondary structure element. So figure out chain and residue number of those atoms, and label each of them individually: PyMOL> label A/42/CA, "beta1" PyMOL> label A/117/CA, "alpha1" PyMOL> label A/147/CA, "alpha2" For changing lab

Hi Bishwa, can you be more precise what you mean by "label"? If the secondary structure is defined in the header of your PDB file, PyMOL can show cartoon representation, show text labels on C-alpha atoms and color by secondary structure. PyMOL> as cartoon PyMOL> label name CA, ss PyMOL> color red

Hi All, I am using Pymol to make figures for my publication. I am not sure if there has been a discussion earlier but I would like to know how we can label the secondary structures (helices and strands) using Pymol. I have them defined in my header file using DSSP. Thank you in advance. Bish
