Do you want to retain the double conformations? If not, then you could use PyMOL to delete the alternate conformations thus, just retaining one of them. # select & remove all non A altlocs remove not (alt ''+A) # reset the PDB information alter all, alt='' taken from: http://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Property_Selectors#Alternate_Locations I hope this helps.
