Hi Its taken me a while to get around to it, but I just ran elbow to create a cif file etc for my inhibitor, but the bond lengths are quite different from what I got from the PRODRUG server, and it seems that the pdb file I got out of elbow has a few problems (COOT doesn't join up the aromatic ring for example because the carbons are now too far away on one part of the ring). I was wondering how the bond lengths are selected? It seems it is giving the aromatic carbons a bond length of 1.5, when my previous file (and phenylalanine for example have 1.3). Also, I still am not 100% sure how to add the CONNECT information to make the ligand able to covalently bind to the protein. Regards Christine
