Ah, sure. For this I would recommend using quaternion rotation. Basically
each amino acid is assigned an xyz frame that is positioned in a way that
depends upon the setting of the "quaternionFrame" -- C, P, or N. Then the
moveto command has the keyword QUATERNION, which can be followed by a
residue number:
set quaternionFrame "C"
moveto quaternion {5}
This orients the molecule relative to that residue.
