Unit cell

General Discussion
1

I have a predefined protein chain that I need to fill up in a unit cell (for my own purposes)

I choose Build>Unit Cell PAramerters, input the A, B, and C parameters, etc and the on screen result is good.

When I save (I’ve tried .pdb and .xyz), the saved file has only the original molecule and the array of molecules that I have just created is lost.

What can I do?

The A, B, and C repeat options under Build > Unit Cell Parameters only
modify the visualization – the additional unit cells are drawn on
screen, but the actual molecule is not modified.

Use Build > Super Cell Builder if you’d like to modify the molecule.

Hope this helps,
