Description: The protein is moved in 3D space. This can be used to superimpose two proteins. If a protein is given instead of a 3x3 matrix and translation vector, then the transformation of that protein is used.

 rotate_translate_protein_complex  xx  xy  xz  yx  yy  yz  zx  zy  zz  translation_x  translation_y  translation_z , protein 

Description: Works similar as rotate_translate. In addition, if protein is part of a multiprotein complex, then also all peptide chains of the complex are rotated and translated.

 scroll_to protein/residue [protein/residue ... ] 

Description: The alignment is scrolled such that residues of interest come into sight.

 select protein1 protein2 ... residue_selection1 ... 

Description: selected proteins are highlighted in the row header. selected residue selections are indicated by marching ants.

 select_3D 3D-ViewID, protein 

Example: select_3D myView , subtilisin.pdb/20-30,35
Description: With this command a 3D-view of a protein is selected. Subsequent 3D-commands (commands starting with "3D_") are interpreted by this 3D-view. The first argument is the viewer ID of a 3D-view created with the open_3D-command. The second argument is a protein or a list of proteins. Instead of referring to a particular 3D-view ID, the constant strings ANY_VIEWER or ANY_WIRE can be used. Do not mix up "select_3D" and "3D_select".

 set_annotation selection_name, key, value 

Description: like add_annotation with the difference that existing entries with this key are deleted.

 superimpose_protein_complexes protein1 protein2 ... 

Description: For proteins that are part of a multiprotein complex, all chains of that complex are moved together. The relative position of the chains of complexes are sustained.

 to_3D jmol, expression 

Description: This command is used to send native commands to a protein viewer. It should only be used, if none of the generic commands defined in STRAP are appropriate. The expression is sent to the current 3D viewer (last select_3D command) Before this, the atoms specified in the select_3D command are selected. The first expression gives the type of 3D-viewer. If the 3D-view given in the last select_3D command is not of this type here jmol, then the command is ignored.

 to_row row-number or protein , list of proteins 

Description: This command is used to change the order of proteins in the alignment.
