select [ligand name and/or chain] and n. [atom name] For instance, if your ligand is chain c and you want to select the atom named C21 in the pdb file:
select c. c & n. c21 or if your ligand has a residue name like "BME" or something similar then you could do: select r. bme & n. c21 Cheers, JTM "We can be sure that if a detailed understanding of the molecular basis of chemo-therapeutic activity were to be obtained, the advance of medicine would be greatly accelerated."
