Chain information help

Suppose that you want to submit a protein that contains two chains, named A and B. Then you have four possibilities to obtain an energy profile:

1.- To fill the chain information box with the next sequence of characters:

AB

With this information, the profile will be performed on chain A, but considering all the atom contacts with the chain B.

2.- To fill the chain information box with the next sequence of characters:

BA

With this information, the profile will be performed on chain B, but considering all the atom contacts with the chain A.

3.- To fill the chain information box with the next sequence of characters:

A

With this information, the profile will be performed only on chain A, without considering the atoms of chain B, even if you submit the atom coordinates of this chain.

4.- To fill the chain information box with the next sequence of characters:

B

With this information, the profile will be performed only on chain B, without considering the atoms of chain A, even if you submit the atom coordinates of this chain.

If you are submitting a unique protein chain without identifier, you must leave the chain information box empty.

If you are submitting a unique protein chain with identifier, you must write it in the chain information box.
