Re: [AMBER] comparison of PDBs from clustering - representative, average and from rst file

Here are the files with only CYX, HIE and HID names changed from the original cluster command output.
But I have taken the representative file and
So it seems like I get the representative structures from the MD trajectry with rather bad parameters like Ramachandran dihedrals etc. and only minimization corrects the a little, but I may expect that from the average structures, but the representative should be more native-like with better clashscores, better ramachandran parameters.

Sincerely yours,
Andrew
