idtosyb

Elaine Meng

This program is designed to convert PDB files into SYBYL MOL2 files. SYBYL does a less than satisfactory job of assigning atom types and bonds when reading in small molecule PDB files. idtosyb uses bond length data from the Cambridge Structural Database to assign atom types in a far superior fashion, although still not perfect. Hydrogens need not be present in the input, and multiple ligands in the same file are processed if separated by TER cards.

Usage: see pdb2syb, a front-end to idtosyb.
