[phenixbb] mutate to polyAla in phenix.automr?

[Randy Read]

Hi,

We are adding various model preparation utilities for the MR pipelines  
in Phenix, and they will appear fairly soon.  If you really want a  
polyAla model, it will be possible to trick the tools into doing this  
for you (e.g. by making an alignment file that has all Ala for your  
target).  However, I personally do not believe in using polyAla  
models.  (If there are clear examples of where this is the best  
option, I'd be pleased to hear about them.)  I prefer the  
Schwarzenbacher et al approach of trimming non-identical sidechains  
back to Ala but leaving the identical ones alone.

Regards,

Randy Read
