I fitted manually the chondroitin sulfate into my complex (3c9e.pdb and 3h7d) using program coot. The chondroitin-sulfate model was used from the PDB. I used CNS for the refinement of the first structure, and phenix for the second structure. Phenix was more convenient with this ligand as it was a polymer chain running through many unit cells. What sulfated sugar did you use? How big it is?

The crystallization condition condition has a sulfated polysaccharide. If I want to perform a MR with this polysaccharide, in presence of the refined protein model in the cell, which program should I use?. In the phaser, there are options only for proteins and nucleic acids. Is there, any automated ligand identifying/fitting program that can work at this resolution? All suggestions are wellcome. Thanks in advance. warm regards, Murugan
