Thanks. We tried that but after the hydrogens were added. We saved it and "vi" the mol2 file. I'll try this. -- Carlos P. Sosa -------------- Original message ---------------------- From: Eric Pettersen <pett@cgl.ucsf.edu>

I forgot, there's actually a fourth thing you can do: change the atom type directly. Select the oxygen atom and open the command line (Favorites->Command Line) and type:

setattr a idatmType O3 sel

which will set the selected atom's "idatmType" attribute to sp3 oxygen ("O3").

Do this before hydrogens are added.

Hi Carlos, There are basically three things you can do:

1) Download the latest daily build and try that. I have been working hard on atom typing for ring systems recently (and am still working on it) and there's a pretty good chance that it will type (and therefore protonate) the phenyl oxygen correctly now. You get a daily build by going to the Chimera home page (www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera) and following the "Daily Builds" link.

2) Directly edit the structure (after adding hydrogens but before adding charges). Control-double-click the oxygen and select "Modify Atom" from the pop-up menu. In the resulting dialog change the element type to O, the geometry to tetrahedral, and the number of bonds to 2. You should also probably change the atom name field to be the same as what the atom's name is. Then click the Change button and the hydrogen will be added.

3) Before doing any processing, change the bond length. Control double-click on the C-O bond and choose "Set Bond Length" from the pop-up menu. Type in a bond length appropriate for a C-O single bond and then run the rest of your processing.

Hello,

We have the opposite problem, our PDB has one oxygen that is part of a phenyl group and after using addH in Chimera, hydrogen does not get added to that oxygen. Is there a way to add hydrogen to a single atom? using Chimera. For Chimera to add a hydrogen to that O... perhaps making the C-O bond larger.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

-- Carlos P. Sosa

I assume this is IMZ from 1rv1? Chimera is adding a proton to the N3 nitrogen that it shouldn't. After adding hydrogens and before saying OK to the charge calculation, type this command to Chimera's command line to delete the extra hydrogen:

del :IMZ@h3

I could not get the charges for my molecule (ligand in x-crystal structure). how to do that? I am getting the following error message. I am using chimera to do these funtions.
