Hi Matthew, You can specify a chain with "chain X" or the abbreviated "c. X" where X is the chain identifier. In your case,
# select residue 2 from chain E select catalytic, resi 2 and chain E # same as above select catalytic, i. 2 and c. E For more help, see the PyMOLWiki (http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Property_Selectors).
