There is a way to do this in pymol. Change the mouse mode to editing mode and click the two ends of the loop, then you should be able to drag it around. I don’t remember exactly how, but hopefully this helps.
Alternatively, you could delete the loop and input the structure into modeller and ask for several models and hopefully one of them would be open Best wishes James On 2 Apr 2025, at 16:43, Rafael Marques <rafael_mmsi...@hotmail.com> wrote: Hi everyone, I am struggling to think about a fast way to move a loop away from a protein domain. I have an alphafold model of a multidomain transmembrane protein that, for a presentation, I would like to "adjust". Between the intracellular bit of it and the extracellular part there is a intrinsically disordered loop. I would like to "open" this loop to emphasize that the domains are distant from each other. And I can not think about any other way of doing it if not changing manually the phi and psi angles of every single amino acid in this loop, which I do not want to do. Any suggestion?
