Hi Robbie and Eleanor There are links for Zn-His and Zn-Cys. They meant to be used automatically, obviously something is not entirely right.
Link names are: ZN-CYS It has a bond between Zn and S as well as an angle: ZN-CYS 1 ZN 2 SG 2 CB 109.000 3.000 This also removes H of Cys to make covalent bond between Zn and Cys. Similar links are available for Zn and His ND1 and Zn - HIS NE2 Link names are: ZN-HISND ZN-HISNE Again these links have angles between Zn and atoms of His. Angle centred at Zn is missing. But these distances and angles defined in the link it should work fine.
