XmlmmCIF equivalent: chemical_conn_atom
Data items in the CHEMICAL_CONN_ATOM category would not, in
general, be used in a macromolecular CIF. See instead the
ENTITY data items.
Data items in the CHEMICAL_CONN_ATOM and CHEMICAL_CONN_BOND
categories record details about the 2D chemical structure of the
molecular species. They allow a 2D chemical diagram to be
reconstructed for use in a publication or in a database search
for structural and substructural relationships.
The CHEMICAL_CONN_ATOM data items provide information about the
chemical properties of the atoms in the structure. In cases
where crystallographic and molecular symmetry elements coincide
they must also contain symmetry-generated atoms, so that the
CHEMICAL_CONN_ATOM and CHEMICAL_CONN_BOND data items will always
describe a complete chemical entity.
XmlmmCIF equivalent: chemical_conn_atom/NCA
The number of connected atoms excluding terminal hydrogen atoms.
XmlmmCIF equivalent: chemical_conn_atom/NH
The total number of hydrogen atoms attached to this atom,
regardless of whether they are included in the refinement or
the ATOM_SITE list. This number is the same as
_atom_site.attached_hydrogens only if none of the hydrogen
atoms appear in the ATOM_SITE list.
XmlmmCIF equivalent: chemical_conn_atom/charge
The net integer charge assigned to this atom. This is the
formal charge assignment normally found in chemical diagrams.
XmlmmCIF equivalent: chemical_conn_atom/display_x
The 2D Cartesian x coordinate of the position of this atom in a
recognisable chemical diagram. The coordinate origin is at the
lower left corner, the x axis is horizontal and the y axis
is vertical. The coordinates must lie in the range 0.0 to 1.0.
These coordinates can be obtained from projections of a suitable
uncluttered view of the molecular structure. If absent, values
will be assigned by the journal or database staff.
XmlmmCIF equivalent: chemical_conn_atom/display_y
The 2D Cartesian y coordinate of the position of this atom in a
recognisable chemical diagram. The coordinate origin is at the
lower left corner, the x axis is horizontal and the y axis
is vertical. The coordinates must lie in the range 0.0 to 1.0.
These coordinates can be obtained from projections of a suitable
uncluttered view of the molecular structure. If absent, values
will be assigned by the journal or database staff.
XmlmmCIF equivalent: chemical_conn_atom/type_symbol
This data item is a pointer to _atom_type.symbol in the
ATOM_TYPE category.
XmlmmCIF equivalent: chemical_conn_atom/number
The chemical sequence number to be associated with this atom.
Within an ATOM_SITE list this number must match with one of
the _atom_site.chemical_conn_number values.
