Dear All, Suppose the protein crystal resolution is about 2-3A, then in the map it should be rather difficult to distinguish the C and N in the sidechain of HIS. In this way we may regard the sidechain of HIS is flippable. But suppose in one flipped conformation of the HIS, the free N in the

You can typically assign the histidine orientation based on analysis of the hydrogen bond network. In ambiguous cases you might have to look a few residues deep. WHAT_CHECK does this for you by a global optimization of the hydrogen bond network. Cheers, Robbie Sent with my Windows Phone

yes, at lowish resolution considering potential H-bonds is often the only way to orient the His, but also Asn and Gln side-chains correctly. Molprobity (http://molprobity.biochem.duke.edu/) and other programs also check this for you, suggesting side-chain flips where necessary or advised. And
