I need to build a cyclic peptide as the initial conformation for further simulations, not only for displaying purposes.
I will try what you say and I will see.

Thank you.

Hi Moshe,

No it isn't. PyMOL is a molecular viewer/graphics engine, not a
modeling package. However, it's not too hard to do using your
favourite MD package. With the definition of a bond and some energy
minimization you'd get close. If it's for displaying purposes only,
that might even be enough.

Cheers,

Tsjerk

 Hello.

 I am new to PyMOL.
 Very easily I succeeded to build a linear peptide, given its sequence.
 I want to build a cyclic peptide for the same sequence, connecting the
 C-terminus with the N-terminus. I know that the bond that is created
 that way is too long - it should be, also, some
 (automatic/algorithmic) way to rearrange the cyclic structure in order
 to have an acceptable bond length.
 Is this possible to do with PyMOL?

 Thanks for your help.
