Select on 1D sequences: drag to select, drag again to deselect, multiple selection is allowed without Ctrl key, click "Save Selection" to save the current selection.
Select on 2D interaction diagram: click on the nodes or lines. The nodes are chains and can be united with the Ctrl key. The lines are interactions and can NOT be united. Each click on the lines selects half of the lines, i.e., select the interacting residues in one of the two chains.
Select on 3D structures: hold "Alt" and use mouse to pick, click the second time to deselect, hold "Ctrl" to union selection, hold "Shift" to select a range, press the up/down arrow to switch among atom/residue/strand/chain/structure, click "Save Selection" to save the current selection.
Save the current selection (either on 3D structure, 2D interactions, or 1D sequence): open the menu "Select -> Save Selection", specify the name and description for the selection, and click "Save".
Residue labeling: aligned residue with coordinates: UPPER case letter; non-aligned residue with coordinates: lower case letter which can be highlighted; residue missing coordinates: lower case letter which can NOT be highlighted.

Specification: In the selection "$1HHO,4N7N.A,B,C:5-10,LV,3AlaVal,chemicals@CA,C":
"$1HHO,4N7N" uses "$" to indicate structure selection.
".A,B,C" uses "." to indicate chain selection.
":5-10,LV,3LeuVal,chemicals" uses the colon ":" to indicate residue selection. Residue selection could be residue number (5-10), one-letter IUPAC residue name abbreviations (LV), three-letter residue names (AlaVal, "3" indicates each residue name has three letters), or predefined names: "proteins", "nucleotides", "chemicals", "ions", and "water". IUPAC abbreviations can be written either as a contiguous string (e.g., ":LV"), in order to find all instances of that sequence in the structure, or they can be separated by commas (e.g., ":L,V") to select all residues of a given type in the structure (in the latter case, select all Leucine and Valine in the structure).
"@CA,C" uses "@" to indicate atom selection.
Partial definition is allowed, e.g., ":1-10" selects all residue IDs 1-10 in all chains.
Different selections can be unioned (with "or", default), intersected (with "and"), or negated (with "not"). For example, ":1-10 or :K" selects all residues 1-10 and all Lys residues. ":1-10 and :K" selects all Lys residues in the range of residue number 1-10. ":1-10 or not :K" selects all residues 1-10, which are not Lys residues.
The wild card character "X" or "x" can be used to represent any character.
Set Operation:
Users can select multiple sets in the menu "Select > Defined Sets".
Different sets can be unioned (with "or", default), intersected (with "and"), or negated (with "not"). For example, if the "Defined Sets" menu has four sets ":1-10", ":11-20", ":5-15", and ":7-8", the command "saved atoms :1-10 or :11-20 and :5-15 not :7-8" unions all residues 1-10 and 11-20 to get the residues 1-20, then intersects with the residues 5-15 to get the residues 5-15, then exclude the residues 7-8 to get the final residues 5-6 and 9-15.

Note: Several PDB files could be concatenated into a single PDB file. Use the line "ENDMDL" to separate PDB files.
PDB File:
The custom JSON file on residue colors has the following format for proteins ("ALA" and "ARG") and nucleotides ("G" and "A"): {"ALA":"#C8C8C8", "ARG":"#145AFF", ..., "G":"#008000", "A":"#6080FF", ...}
Residue Color File:
The custom file for the structure has two columns separated by space or tab: residue number, and score in the range of 0-100. If you click "Custom Color" button, scores 0 and 100 mean blue and red, respectively. If you click "Custom Tube", the selected residues will be displayed in a style similar to "B-factor Tube".
Custom File:
Enter the PDB IDs or MMDB IDs of two structures that have been found to be similar by VAST+ :
ID1: ID2:
All chains will be aligned to the first chain in the comma-separated chain IDs. Each chain ID has the form of pdbid_chain (e.g., 1HHO_A, case sensitive). If the residue numbers to be aligned in the first chain is not defined, the full chain will be used for sequence alignment.
Chain IDs:
Residue Numbers (optional):
(Note: To align chains in custom PDB files, you could concatenate PDB files in a single PDB file with the separation line "ENDMDL". Then load it in "Open File > PDB File" in the "File" menu and click "View Sequences & Annotations" in the "Window" menu. Finally select multiple chains in the sequence window and click "Realign Selection" in the "File" menu.)
Please specify the mutations with a comma separated mutation list. Each mutation can be specified as "[PDB ID]_[Chain ID]_[Residue Number]_[One Letter Mutatnt Residue]". E.g., the mutation of N501Y in the E chain of PDB 6M0J can be specified as "6M0J_E_501_Y".

Note: Only the selected residues are used for DelPhi potential calculation by solving linear Poisson-Boltzmann equation.
The hydrogens and partial charges of proteins and nucleotides are added using DelPhiPKa with the Amber charge and size files. The hydrogens of ligands are added using Open Babel. The partial charges of ligands are calculated using Antechamber with the Gasteiger charge method. All partial charges are calculated at pH 7.
Lipids are treated as ligands. Please use "HETATM" instead of "ATOM " for each lipid atom in your PDB file. Each phosphate in lipids is assigned with a charge of -1. You can download PQR and modify it, or prepare your PQR file using other tools. Then load the PQR file at the menu "Analysis > Load PQR/Potential".
