Thank you for your help Thomas, Using your settings I get a lot of "partial surfaces"
Showing the surface around the Pocket selection like this: show surface, protein within 0.5 of pocket_selection worked well but I still see a piece of surface that I really don't want to show up. I guess I can take it out in photoshop but that just seems wrong. I have attached it. -Yarrow > Hi Yarrow, > should be as simple as: > PyMOL> hide surface > PyMOL> show surface, (organic around 8.0) > PyMOL> set transparency, 0.3 > PyMOL> set two_sided_lighting > See also: > http://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Selection_Algebra > Hope that helps. > Cheers, > Thomas > Yarrow Madrona wrote, On 03/03/13 18:34: >> Hello, >> Does anyone know how to visualize a surface within a given radius from a >> ligand binding site?
