[PyMOL] How to visualize electrostatic potential map of a viral particle

[Chaava CA <cha...@gm...>]

Hello,

I am very new to pymol and mainly use it for visualizing proteins and
surface properties. I am trying to generate the electrostatic potential map
of a Adeno associated viral particle which has 60 identical subunits. I
have the PDB file for it but it only shows 1 subunit at a time. In addition
when I generate the pqr I only get the potentials for one subunit. How can
I generate the potential for the entire viral particle and visualize it? I
do have the APBS plugin.

If someone can explain this process in slightly more layman’s terms and
stepwise approach it would be very helpful.

Any help is much appreciated.

Thank you!
