Aligning two residues same name

Task: compare/align a single-residue molecule before docking (naked molecule, mol2 or pdb file) with same residue as ligand in a protein after docking/MD (pdb file of a snapshot for complex embedded in a bilayer membrane). Should I change the residue name in one of the two models? Same name poses to me problems. Or there is a direct way?

Hi Francesco, You can specify a residue by it's sequence number and chain ID rather than it's name. So if your single-residue molecule is open as model 0 and your snapshot structure in model 1, and you wanted to match the single residue with residue 31 in chain A of model 1, this would do it: match #0 #1:31.a --Eric Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu On Feb 4, 2008, at 6:59 AM, Francesco Pietra wrote:
