Hi Guys,

This is a slightly off topic question but I was wondering if you could help.

I have a crystal structure (1KAS) which is the monomer of a homodimer
related by a two fold symmetry axis. Basically I want to be able to look at
the dimeric structure but I haven't a clue how to use the BioMT matrix to
transform the structure. Is there a nice easy way of doing this?

Thanks in advance

Chris
