They do not work. I did not realize that they were part of the popup menu system ... I apologize. Tim and I identified these as 'reserved words' and put them on our wish-list, but it is not implemented. > I mean, how are the "Carbohydrate" and "Lipid" > components identified in the moelcular coordinate file? > This is a nice option for glycoproteins and glycolipids, but I'm afraid > that PDB spec doesn't provide for it; it could be used profitably by > editing the pdb to enter the appropiate IDs, so I want to know which they > are. The idea was/is for Jmol to recognize these things automatically, using pattern searching within the structure. Jmol does some recognition of 'proteins', distinct from the 'chain identifier' specified in pdb & mmcif files. We would like to apply some similar substructure searching to identify lipids & carbohydrates ... but nothing has been done.
