[Chimera-users] Covalent bond making and docking

[Eric Pettersen]

Hi Bixia,
	It's a little unclear to me exactly what went wrong.  No code in Chimera issues a message containing the phrase "poor connection".    Perhaps you could send me a session of your structure just after you make the serine/uracil bond and then I can run it myself through Dock Prep and get a better understanding of the problem.

Then I was trying to do docking to see if this mutation changed the binding affinity. However, after I ran dock prep, the uracil was got rid of because of “poor connection”. I am wondering if this arbitrary bond is feasible in chimera and can I do docking with this artificial model?
