Retrieving full sequence from PDB file
![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/63f6259feb953fed9153f2c6792a8c4b.jpg?s=120&d=mm&r=g)
Hello, For the project I am working on, I need all the sequence residues from the pdb file irrespective of whether the residues have atom information or not. I saw that there is a way to write out the residues with atom information from the pdb file. But is there a way to write out all the sequence residues mentioned at the top of the pdb file?
Thanks, Sneha

Not with Modeller, no - it only reads the ATOM and HETATM records, not the SEQRES records. But the SEQRES records have a very simple format - it would be easy to write a Perl or Python script to extract that sequence if you can't find an existing piece of software that does it.
