Hi Xavier, The best option to transfer bond orders from PyMOL to Maestro might be with .mol2 (or .sdf) format. These formats can store aromatic bond orders and Maestro will convert that to meaningful double/single bonds when loading the file.
- .pdb format can't store aromatic bonds (and double bonds only with an unofficial trick) - .mae format can't store aromatic bonds - Maestro doesn't have aromatic bond orders - PyMOL has limited capabilities for detecting bond orders and can't convert aromatic bonds to single/double bonds (kekulization) - .sdf format doesn't have protein and residue level information, but .mol2 does Cheers, Thomas On Wed, May 17, 2023 at 4:51 PM Xavier Fradera <xavier.frad...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi, > > I'm trying to save some molecule files (protein+ligand complex) from pymol to > a format that is readable by maestro.
