Addition of ATOM records to the .rcm file
In addition to these residue centre-of-mass records, the file can also contain ATOM records in standard PDB format (see Appendix A - Brookhaven file format). These can be taken from, say, a ligplot.pdb file of flattened coordinates generated by a prior run of LIGPLOT. The ATOM records can be used as positional restraints on a subsequent run by following the procedure described in section 6c - Same protein, different ligands.
