The O3' to P bond lengths are 2.2 Angstroms when they should 1.6 Angstroms.
This is outside the bond length range that PyMOL accepts so the bond is absent 
when you display the model as line or stick model.
This is why the cartoon is missing or broken.
5FUR is a 8.5 Angstrom cryo EM structure.
Perhaps the associated paper explains this discrepancy. 

Best regards,

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [PyMOL] broken DNA cartoon

Hi All,

When I open 5FUR either from my drive or via fetch, the DNA cartoon is broken 
and mostly missing (it should span from left to right). Any ideas on how to get 
the cartoon to work?

Pymol version 2.3.4
