Re: [PyMOL] How to assign secondary structure as 3-10 helix in pymol?

When you use the alter command, then rebuild, and then save the PyMOL session as a .pse file, the changes will be written into the .pse file. They will not be lost when you reopen the .pse file. The alter command doesn’t do anything to the actual .pdb or .cif file. It’s my understanding that wh

[PyMOL] colored secondary structure of two chains with different colors

Dear Stéphane, by default, the cartoon representation takes its color from the color of the c-alpha atoms of your protein. However, you can override this default and assign a specific color to the cartoon representation of a given selection by: set cartoon_color, color, (selection) e.g. set

Re: [PyMOL] colored secondary structure of two chains with different colors

Hi Adam OK I can colored each chain with different colors. But it is not exactly what I want. Indeed in the figure* - the AA are in sticks with the different colors for each atom --> I can do this - the beta sheet in the monomer are in red and blue ---> I can "not" do this even if I use yo
