I'm confused... I just tested creating an OBMol with a PDB with ~32K atoms and it worked. I definitely remember reading discussion where Noel was mentioning a limit (that at this point can't be 1k atoms) but I can't find it since Sourceforge seems to be down for maintenance.
In any case, dealing with proteins using chains can be a good choice to simplify the workflow (at least in my experience).

I know this is also true for SMILES and InChI however this doesn't make much sense for mol2. I currently do mutations/atom manipulations with large proteins with non-standard residues, so its a requirement that I load molecules with formally defined bonding. Loading with PDB leads to incorrect bonding when I attempt to dump out after modifications. Can anyone offer any solutions?
