Hi Pascal,

Thanks for the reply.

I tried the PDBSum today to test what you mentioned. Unfortunately, the
PDBSum seems to have only PDB files formats to download. Moreover, both the
PDB and the CIF are not so suitable for me because I need to convert the
file to MOL2 and I think that these formats could generate some errors after
the conversion with Open Babel due to the lack of charge, valence, bond
order information, etc (correct if I'm wrong).

Anyway, the PDBSum gave some insights and I liked the way that they treat
the covalently bonded ligands.

Thanks for the help.
