Dear Pymol users We are trying to generate a number of mutated structures using the mutagenesis wizard. However, after mutating a position and saving to a new PDB file, the mutated residue ends up being "mixed" into the coordinate lines of the first residue. Some two coordinate lines are separated by TER statements. At the position, where the residue should sit, there is a TER statement, and the residue is skipped (e.g Res ID 139, TER, Res ID 141). We also observe this using
set retain_order set pdb_retain_ids Is there a fix for this? Any help is appreciated.
