Dear all
I would like to visually compare (using some molecular graphics software) the crystal packing of two different crystal forms of the same protein. In order to identify the similarities/differences between the crystal packings, I need to change the default unit cell origin and orientation of one of the crystal forms. * Is there a way, in CCP4MG or other molecular graphics software, to apply a given rotation/translation matrix to a "crystal object" (not to a single molecular object), so that further expansions of the object by crystal symmetry will be consistent with the new origin/orientation ? * If yes: can the transformation be defined by a least-squares superposition between molecules from the two crystal objects ?
