Thanks Paul for the quick response. Simple enough and works beautifully for modifying N-terminus methionine to AME in coot.

Linked AME to residue# 2 in coot and refinement was straightforward after generating restraints for the modified model. So it worked for now but still curious as there has to be a way to replace 'M' with 'AME' in coot, isn't it (?).

Generally, for this sort of thing one would use:

Extensions -> Modelling -> Replace Residue -> AME

But this might not work in the case because the modification is on the
main-chain not the side-chain.  But it might do if the AME is at the
N-terminus.

This thread might shed some light on things:
