We can also do a superposition of the two subunits in the dimer of a single structure, say 3HG5. This is shown here and the commands used to make this figure is below.

This script compares (and superimposes) all C-alpha atoms of chain A with all of chain B. This script would not do a good job if - say - the first couple residues were missing in chain A abut not in chain B (because the atom pairs would not be matched up correctly). In this case, however, each subunit has the same residues in the same order, so it works nicely.
