Charles, Karee:
Actually, I was suggesting putting in separate restraints from the proton (res
19 HE3) to all six ring carbon atoms of residue 20. The choice of averaging
should make no difference. To place HE3, you need to know the distance from
each carbon to the ring center ("r"), and the distance from the center of the
ring to HE3 ("h"). Then just put in six separate restraints from HE3 to each
carbon with the target distances sort(r^2 +h^2). That should put HE3 where you
want it.
