You can use "as" to switch to a particular style (http://pymolwiki.org/index.php/As
):
as cartooon, 11AS and chain a
You can also hide everything, to remove all representations (http://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Hide):
hide every, 11AS and not (n. ca+c+n and resi 5-10)
I'm a fairly expert user of PyMOL and I've never seen an API exposed which will show ...

What biochemical molecule viewer allows for changes in amino acids and resulting tertiary structure?
If I understand what you're attempting to accomplish, as David said, this is a vigorous area of study in structural biology. I'll start by saying that a single amino acid substitution will often make virtually no difference in a structure, but there are proteins where a couple substitutions will convert an all alpha-helical protein to all beta-sheet, so I'll ...

After you load the molecule in VMD, from the menu bar select Graphics->Representations... In the box labeled Selected Atoms, type "hetero" and hit enter. You should now see only your ligand (and whatever other non-protein/DNA atoms that happen to be in your PDB file). Hit the Create Rep button, enter "protein" in the Selected Atoms box and hit enter (you can ...
