Hello everyone,
I wanted to use Bio:PDB to retrieve the atom element symbol from columns 77-78 of the PDB file. This is apparently not possible with the lastest version of Biopython 1.52.
Some time ago, Macro Zhu posted the following fix:
http://osdir.com/ml/python.bio.general/2008-04/msg00038.html
which I have tried to implement in the current 1.52 version, however I cannot seem to get this to work.
Is there any way to retrieve the element symbol using the current version of Biopython? If not, I would like to request that this functionality be added to Bio.PDB.
Best regards,
Konrad
