I think James Holton's "build_pdb" project can do this.
For example, to make a canonical alpha helix,

#!/bin/csh
cat << EOF | build_n2c.awk | tee helix.pdb
BUILD MET   0 -47 180
BUILD ALA -57 -47 180
BUILD ALA -57 -47 180
BUILD ALA -57 -47 180
BUILD ALA -57 -47 180
BUILD ALA -57 -47 180
BUILD ALA -57 -47 180
BUILD ALA -57 -47 180
BUILD ALA -57 -47 180
BUILD ALA -57 -47 180
BUILD ALA -57 -47 180
BUILD ALA -57 -47 180
BUILD ALA -57 -47 180
BUILD ALA -57 -47 180
BUILD ALA -57 -47 180
BUILD -57
EOF

I understand it can also add side chains, with default rotamers or specified 
chi angles.
and start at either end of a pre-existing pdb file.

Does anyone know if there is a program that will take a sequence file 
associated with phi and psi angles and produce a 3D coordinate set in pdb 
format?

I know this can be done in the sense that Byron Rubin’s bender did the same 
thing in analog fashion.

Many thanks
