Hi Garib,
   Thank you for your reply. I edited the NLE.cif file in the CCP4 monomer
library. You can see I successfully changed the group to L-peptide, as
shown below:
/Applications/ccp4-7.1/lib/data/monomers/list/mon_lib_list.cif | awk /NLE/
NLE     NLE     NORLEUCINE     L-peptide    22     9     .
NLE-D    NLE      PEPT-D   D-NORLEUCINE                     D-peptide

cat cat /Applications/ccp4-7.1/lib/data/monomers/n/NLE.cif | awk /L-peptide/
NLE     NLE     NORLEUCINE     L-peptide    22     9     .
   As shown in the following graph, I delete MET11 and then use the "Get
monomer" method of Coot using NLE. I then align the NLE to the local
electron density. But I couldn't change the linkage type that Coot still
regard it not as an a.a. residue but as a small molecule ligand.
  I also tried to use the "Simple Mutate" tab in Coot to mutate MET11 to
NLE, but there's no NLE option there, even after I edited the NLE.cif in
the monomer library.
  So, now the question is how to add the NLE to the Coot "Simple Mutate"
list? Do you have any suggestions?
Sincerely,
Jiang
