Dear Bob, Herb Bernstein's recent message to molvis-list and pdb-l about RasMol being revised to support PDB format version 3 alerted me to a potential problem that I had not been aware of.
As part of the PDB's remediation project ( http://remediation.wwpdb.org/ ), they made changes to the PDB format, now called version 3. Notably, DNA nucleotides are named DA, DT, DC, DG, DI while RNA remain A, U, C, G, I. Apparently within a matter of weeks, all PDB files from the wwPDB will be in remediated format, including of course all new future entries. So far I have not managet personally to test the consequences of the remediated PDB format e.g. for FirstGlance in Jmol. However, at least the change in DNA naming seems likely to me to require changes within Jmol itself. So this is a heads up, in case this has not already been dealt with.
