Thanks everyone. Angel I like your solution. I was not aware of "amino". In the code for FirstGlance, I enumerate all 20 amino acid names in order to select protein atoms that lack alpha carbons. "amino" is much easier!
Does select amino fail to select something selected by select protein ?? Why do we need both "protein" or "amino"? Is a similar situation possible for nucleic? That is, is there one atom that is required in order for other atoms in the same group to be deemed "nucleic" (like alpha carbon for protein)? If so, what would be the safe syntax to select ALL atoms in standard nucleotides, regardless of atoms that may lack coordinates?
