Hey Afonso,

In Bio.PDB there is not for sure. Bio.Graphics *might* be adapted to deal
with such files but I can't tell you how straightforward it can be. Have a
look here:

http://biopython.org/DIST/docs/tutorial/Tutorial.html#htoc200
http://www.bio-cloud.info/Biopython/en/ch15.html

Also, are you by any chance parsing PDBTM files? That could be a useful
addition for Bio.PDB.

Abraço,

João
