Dear all,

I want to create a movie of a virus capsid from N biological unit pdb files
(N frames). After loading and splitting the first pdb file, how to load the
remaining pdb files and put them in different states/frames? 

Is there any optional control on the command, 'split_states', e.g. splitting
to a certain state? 

Thanks a lot!
Zheng

Hi Surendra,
Just to make sure, are you downloading the "biological unit" PDB from 
RCSB? That should be a 5MB gzipped file. The normal PDB for 1c8e does 
not contain coordinates for the biological unit (which you need to use 
split_states); only a monomer and then info on crystal symmetry. If you 
go to a PDB entry at the RCSB and open up the "Download Files" menu, 
choose the last option in the list, "Biological Unit Coordinates".
Here is a direct link to the biological unit for 1c8e
http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/files/1c8e.pdb1.gz
The normal PDB is
