Hi Shukun, why and how did the matrix_copy command fail? If you swap step (2) and (3) everything should be fine. Try this:
fetch 2xwu 2x19, async=0 as ribbon symexp mates, 2x19, 2x19, 6.0, segi=1 align /2x19//B, /2xwu//B matrix_copy 2x19, mates* By the way, the segi=1 argument of the symexp command gives every symmetry mate a uniqe segment identifier, so if you would save them all to the same PDB file there is no need to rename chain IDs.
