Re: [PyMOL] symmetry mates

[Spencer B. <sb...@uc...>]

Sometimes it is easier to see the overall structure when looking at a
single unit cell rather than the symmetry mates within a certain distance.
You might want to try the supercell
<http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Supercell> script. Otherwise I tend to
generate symmetry mates multiple times and then hide or delete the ones
that don't match the expected biological assembly.
