Dear all,
we would like to ask coot to fit the Val-Lys dipeptide of a thermolysin
structure.
We read in a PDB-file with the VK-fragment and run the Other Modelling
Tools-Find Ligands tool.
Unfortunately coot rips the pair apart and only places the valine into the
density, the lysine is simply
Good old Val-Lys. I've noticed in the recent overhaul of the
PDB they adopted the convention that any peptide less than three
amino acids in length is now HETATOMs instead of ATOMs. This may
be screwing up Coot's ability to link the dipeptide. I suggest
you edit the PDB file to change these
