[PyMOL] How to change the radius of only one loop without changing its position?

[Nian H. <hua...@gm...>]

Hi, all,
I am trying to change the radius of one loop by making it as a new
object. But every time I do that, because the smooth-loop setting is
on, that loop just won't match its orignal position, i.e. connecting
to other part of the cartoon. I certainly can set  the smooth-loop
off, but it will make the figure ugly. Is there a better way to do
that?

Thanks.

Nian

Hi Nian,

I believe that happens becouse you are creating a new object with only th=
e loop
that you need to show and PyMol smothes it in a different fashion. Try cr=
eating
a new object containing the same selection you used originally, but only =
show
that one loop, for exemple:

>load protein.pdb, prot
>hide everything, prot
>show cartoon, (prot and resi 120-140)

That should keep all residues in equivalent position.

All the best,

Mario Sanches
