Title: pdb files created using v 1.5 and v 2.1 beta
Post by: shynomat on May 29, 2012, 06:12:12 pm: Dear users,

Initially I was using X3DNA v 1.5 for creating a pdb file, which I used for studying mutations.
Only recently I realized there are new versions of X3DNA and I tried creating the same pdb file using v 2.1 beta.
These two files seems to be different. Can anyone comment on this? does it mean the pdb file I created using v1.5 is not good?

Thank you very much,
Shyno Mathew

But when I loaded both structures in vmd, they looked the same.
thanks
Shyno

Overall, the v2.1 version is supposed to be more standard compliant, but the xyz coordinates should be the same.
