I really have no view providing that if you include the whole side chain
you must set the atom occupancy to 0.00 forthe invisible atoms..

Hi,
i would like to get opinions on whether or not one removes side-chain atoms where
there is no density. for example, if one can only observe density up to the
beta-carbon for lysine (say at > 0.5 sigma), does one leave the lysine side
chain intact, knowing it must be disordered, or does one terminate at the
beta-carbon, making the coordinates reflect what is actually observed in the
density.
It seems both approaches are published and people seem to have conflicting opinions on the topic. It would be nice to come to some concensus, possibly clear up the issue for us newbies.
Thanks in advance for all feedback!
Cheers,
NIck
