Dear Bob, Currently, it appears to me (undocumented?) that "color group" works differently when symmetry-related copies of the asymmetric unit are generated with e.g.
load "" {555 555 1} range -7.0 When only the asymmetric unit is loaded, chain A (which happens to consist of 3 monomers in my instance) is colored in a single blue-to-red rainbow sequence. Perfect. After the symmetry copies are generated, it appears that the "select protein; color group" color scheme runs from blue for the first copy of chain A through red for the last copy. So asymmetric unit chain A that spanned blue-to-red before symmetry operations, is now entirely blue, and symmetry copies of it are colors towards red. I am not sure if this is a feature or a bug. After all if you want to distinguish different symmetry copies of a chain, there is "color polymer". Anyway, I want to color each copy (or fragmentary copy) of the chain blue-to-red exactly as the original asymmetric unit was colored with "color group". There would be no color distinction between copies. Instead, (let's say the full chain is sequence numbers 1-100), residue 1 would always be blue in all copies or fragmentary copies; residue 100 would always be red in all copies or fragmentary copies. Is there some way to do this?
