But for future PDB deposition (I guess that's the ultimate purpose of the 
exercise), wouldn't it be better to leave the residue numbering as it is (i.e. 
in reference to the location on the sequence)?

Subject: Re: [ccp4bb] renumbering amino acid residues in a pdb file

Hi Michael,

another option:

phenix.pdbtools fab.pdb renumber_residues=true

that will re-number residues in all chains.

Pavel.

Hi All,
         I have a pdb file of a single domain from a protein. The amino acid 
residues are numbered based on their position in the full length protein, so 
they do not start at 1, but I would like them to. Coot has a Renumber Residues 
feature under the Calculate menu, but it does not appear to work at all. For 
example, I want to renumber chain B, which starts at 445 and goes up to residue 
522, to start at 1. So I open Renumber Residues, select chain B, enter the 
residue range 445 to 522, then the offset of -444. Coot does not make the 
change. Is there something else that I should be doing here?
 Thanks
