The question is-- is there an easy, publicly available program available to add the estimates in for all the other atoms? Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks in advance Paul Schneeman, UCDavis prschneeman@ucdavis.edu

First, pardon me for accidently reposting the original query. Since it happened, I will not repeat the message in this reply. Some commercial molecular modeling do make provision for doing this, but no public domain programs yet that I am aware of. One method for doing it was recently published. @article{alphaonly, author = "Liisa Holm and Chris Sander", title = "Database Algorithm for Generating Protein Backbone and Side-chain Co-ordinates from a {C$^\alpha$} Trace", year = 1991, journal = "J.
