Why does typing "select hydrogen" show 0? Shouldn't there be hydrogen atoms in every amino acid?

Looking at the CRISPR page of the Wiki https://scioly.org/wiki/index.php/Prote ... ing/CRISPR, it says the Anti-CRISPR pre-build is pdb ID 5xn4. The rules clarification says it's 5vw1. The Wiki page is wrong? Are those other CRISPR IDs correct?

I don't know the details, but I would assume the rules clarification is accurate.

Jmol/Smol program

Do we need to have this software downloaded on our computers?

Jmol/Smol is useful to have downloaded to help you understand it. It's not technically required, but I can't see a team doing very well without having it. Although, I think it's browser-based as well.

I just picked up Jmol and I have 0 grasp on biology much less protein modeling, but it's really fun so far.


I really could use some help with Jmol. Is there a PDB reference code I can use to get CRISPR Cas9? I've searched around, but I can only find Cas9 attached to viral DNA strands.

How can you convert the mess of 4un3 to something that doesn't give me a stroke when you look at it?

Any links to tutorials would be nice too thanks.

The MSOE website has a bunch of tutorials on how to use Jmol and restrict domains (removing all the residues you don't need, showing certain sidechains, restricting to just the backbone (2ndary structure)

http://cbm.msoe.edu/scienceOlympiad/participant3.php

Scroll down on that page and they should have links under their Advanced Jmol training guide, which I found particularly helpful!

Thank you so much!
