Hi JD,
I don't know if/where there is a complete list for programmers, but  
the User's Guide "atom specification" page includes tables that list  
several attributes of atoms, residues, and molecule models.  Maybe  
you saw these already.

frameatom_spec.html

To see the lists, click the links on the left: Atom, Residue, Model.
Best,
Elaine
