Hi everyone: I wanted to check to see what the proper way to include a chiral center definition to the .cif file. I have a ligand that is covalently attached to a cys side chain and I wanted to adjust the chirality of the atom of the ligand attached to the Cys sulfur but I only have the .cif

Hi If it’s just organic, use 18 Å^3 per non-hydrogen - e.g. glucose (C6H12O6) occupies around 12*18 ~= 216Å^3. Atoms like S and P add a little more, but for mental artihmetic and a quick estimate it doesn’t amount to a hill of beans. H > On 5 Nov 2020, at 09:25, vincent Chaptal wrote: > >
