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.

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.

hol up I'm dummm 4un3.pdb

ooooof

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)

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!
