Well - try the coordinate utility recommended by Martyn Winn to convert
cif to pdb
coord_format xyzin ./1ivo.cif xyzout 1ivo.pdb <<eof
END
eof
Then
pdbset xyzin 1ivo.pdb xyzout 1ivo-sym.pdb
symgen -x,y,z (or whatever sym op you want)
end
This will generate symmetry copy of your coordinates as you want and you
can edit the two files together.
or
pdbset xyzin 1ivo.pdb xyzout 1ivo-sym.pdb
symgen P222 (say) to generate all symmetry..

Dear all,
I have a coordinates CIF file of an interested metal from "CRYSTMET Toth
Materials Toolkit" with the atoms coordinates. I want to create a metal
plane according to the cell symmetry of the metal and to convert the
coordinates so it be used in a pdb format file for exploring the protein fit
to the metal surface.
Has someone can recommend on a program that can create the symmetry and
duplicate it to a metal plane, and to convert it into a pdb format file?
thanks.
