Dear all,

Thank you for your informative answers.

For various reasons, I am not yet willing to move to cif.

Indeed remark 285 of the 1hho header:

http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/files/1HHO.pdb?headerOnly=YES

reads:

REMARK 285                                                                      
REMARK 285 THE ENTRY COORDINATES                                                
REMARK 285 ARE NOT PRESENTED IN THE STANDARD CRYSTAL FRAME.    

Rasmol 2.7.5.2 displays both states of the biological structure, but, 
unfortunately, it does not recognise the secondary structure elements of the 
second state.

The fact that Rasmol and the three html embedded viewers in the PDB page:

http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/explore/jmol.do?structureId=1HHO&bionumber=1

display the second state, means that Pymol is the one that has the issue, as 
Ezra mentioned.

As PyMOL's failure to recognise non-standard crystal frames is a major issue, 
I think I have to report it to PyMOL developers. How do I do a bug report on 
PyMOL 1.8.0.0? I just joined your emailing list and I am not sure how to do 
that.

Thank you in advance.

Best Regards,

Ioannis
