The structures of proteins generated experimentally or computationally are
in a .pdb files and to visualize these structures are the key need of new era. The
visualization of the predicted models helps to visualize including loops, α helices, β
pleated sheets and turns for the better understanding of the structure. Numerous tools
are available for visualizing the structures and also to edit or performing different
functions as per the need of experiment. Here, we will focus on the basic visualizing
functions by utilizing Chimera.
