Hi Paul, SDF files in the RCSB database do store PDB atom names, have a look at
http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/download/downloadLigandFiles.do?ligandIdList=S58&structIdList=1CX2&instanceType=all&excludeUnobserved=false&includeHydrogens=false for an example. Atom names stored in this fashion are read in by the RDKit and can be accessed as the "molFileAlias" atom property; they can also be stored accordingly. See https://gist.github.com/ptosco/6e4468350f0fff183e4507ef24f092a1#file-pdb_atom_names-ipynb for an example. Cheers, p.
