8-Dec-2011 10:40am Dear Bostjan Consurf is also interfaced to Proteopedia, http://www.proteopedia.org, i.e. for all structures that have at least several sequences, one can automatically see an evolutionarily colored 3D Jmol image of the structures by just pushing the ConSurf button. See, e.g. http://proteopedia.org/wiki/index.php/1hho the "STRUCTURE OF HUMAN OXYHAEMOGLOBIN AT 2.1 ANGSTROMS RESOLUTION" by Boaz Shaanan and click on button "Evolutionary conservation: [show]" best regards, Joel On 8 Dec 2011, at 07:39, Bostjan Kobe wrote:

Something like red highly conserved, all the way to white, not conserved at all... Now, I assume the figure was done by uploading aligned sequnces of several members of a family, and the colouring the generated surface accordingly. Does anyone know a way to do this more elegantly than what I tried doing? ps. I quit colouring them manually after I remebered my protein was 407 aa long...
