Dear Dr. Carlos / Ross
Thanks so much for your interest.
As you know, Hydrogens atoms are added by Xleap, so how can I decide my histadine which one of the three types?
I checked my PDB file, I found my histidine is not bonded throughout imidazol ring. So, which form is it?
In other way, could you support me with three different examples, please?
Thanks in Advance

the delta N is the one closer to the alpha carbon- atoms are labeled in
order alpha, beta, gamma, delta, epsilon moving out the side chain. not sure
what you mean by an example of HIP- this would be His at low pH. most x=-ay
crystal structures have no H atoms so it is not clear which of the 3 forms
it really is. you need other experiments to tell.
