before modelling a long side-chain in non-existing or dubious density,
also make sure it is really there in the protein by sequencing your
expression plasmid. Your arginine (for example) may in fact be a
serine or glycine...databases are not 100% accurate and neither is PCR

Dear Faisal,
You definitely do not mutate to alanine as that would imply for the
future "user" of your pdb file that it is a mutant.
Some people feel they have to keep the side chain but put the
occupancies at zero. I think this is a bad practice and strongly oppose
to it as for the future "u

Hi,
There has been quite a lot of discussion about this and I think
different opinions exist. I would try to keep the side chains, if
there is some evidence where they are. Otherwise I would just delete
atoms and I would not mutate them to alanine.

Dear all
i have solved a structure ( at 2A resolution) whose Rwork and Rfree is 22
and 25 respectively..the Ramachandran plot shows 90% of the residues in the
most favorable region and with 6 residues in generously allowed and no
residues in disallowed region. But in some areas i can see density m
