Description

I tried to predict the structure of a protein that contains a selenocysteine. The unrelaxed pdb has a missing residue corresponding to the selenocysteine position and relaxation failed due to missing atoms. Is this a common issue for proteins with non-canonical aminoacids or am I doing something wrong here?
