The biggest issue is that my structures are large (12- 422aa chains) and any attempt at simple alignment in pymol results in a crash.  I would like to first compare entire structures, but also compare the differences between related chains in the same structure.  I want to look at the small differences in the active site density.  What is the best way to do this?  Is there a simple way to do this or do I need to make separate pdb files for each chain?  Can I use the same mtz or should I rename copies?
