Hi Kai,
If the CONECT record indicating that those two atoms are bonded is in the PDB file then this is a problem with Coot -- you would need to ask on the Coot mailing list why it isn't showing that bond.

Hi Eric, 

Thanks for the reply. I tried both cif and pdb, neither seems to work for me. I can see the connection has been created when I inspected pdb file, but somehow the bond is not present when opened in Coot. 

Thanks,
Kai

Hi Kai,
Did you write the file as PDB or mmCIF when you saved it from ChimeraX?  When I use Build Structure to join a NAG to an ASN, the resulting PDB file has the proper LINK/CONECT records.

Dear colleagues,

I am trying to build a N-glycan into my model using 'bond' command with ChimeraX, by connecting the ND2 atom from an ASN residue to the C1 atom of the N-glycan (NAG). However, the manually built bond didn't show up when I opened the coordinates in Coot. Is there a way to overcome this issue? The bond length is 1.4 Å. Thanks in advance! 

Cheers,
Kai
