You could simply hand-edit the PDB file to remove the offending ligand.
Regards, Tony. Hi, all I want to write a specific chain structures(protein). I tried PDBSET and biopython but they couldn't deal with some exceptional case. For example, some pdb files contain both protein structure and ligand structure in a given chain ID(e.g. 'A' or ' ') How can I obtain full chain structures without ligand structure by other methods than clicking one by one at any website. Thanks in advance.
