CSUMB Bio 310L - Using Cn3D

Cn3D is a powerful tool: You already know how to download and open Cn3D from Lab #1. Here is how to see which residues might be interacting between the alpha and beta hemoglobin subunits. 3HHB in PDB - This is a Cn3D file, so you right-click it and store it on your desktop. Then open it with Cn3D (see first lab). Style --> Edit Global Style --> remove helix objects and turn on side chains Show/Hide -->Pick Structures --> highlight only 3HHB_A and 3HHB_B. Select the amino terminal valine of the top (alpha) sequence and make sure it has turned yellow. Show/Hide --> Select By Distance --> start with 4 Angstroms. Carefully scan all four sequences to see which other sidechains might interact with the valine?
