perhaps, but *The value of _atom_sites_alt.id <http://atom_sites_alt.id> must uniquely identify a record in the ATOM_SITES_ALT list. Note that this item need not be a number; it can be any unique identifier.*
So just because at this point in time all are upper case, it can, in principle, be upper or lower case. I would rather not change the behavior. People who write their own PDB files could distinguish A from a. Bob On Mon, Aug 17, 2015 at 11:17 AM, Eric Martz <ema...@microbio.umass.edu> wrote: > Hi, Bob, > > 1.
