Dear PyMOL List
I'm frequently using the PyMOL mutagenesis wizard. Consider the mutation 
of tryptophan to phenylalanin. If the sidechain is mutated from W to F, 
its reasonable to assume that the plane of the phenyl moiety of F 
would/should/could/might lie in the same plane as the indol part of the 
W if there was such a protein.
Would it be possible to scriptically adjust the F side chain, after 
mutation, such that it lies in the W plane?
Of course, this becomes ambiguous when, say, a A is mutated to a D, 
because what would then be the reference for the D side chain? However, 
N to D would be another case, where it would be desired to have the D 
end group be in as much overlay with the former N end group as possible.

Any ideas on how this might be afforded? Probably not a one-liner though.

Kind regards
Martin
