- To know if your file is properly formatted, you can refer to this online resource : https://cupnet.net/pdb-format/.
- Also, make sure the file extension is the appropriate one:
.pdb
. - I just tried an example using OpenBabel online version 3.1.1, with a Chlorine atom, (SMILES to PDB, 3D coordinates, add hydrogen) and it was functional.
See one not-functional and functional example (from SMILES ClCCCCOc1ccccc1
):
- File with wrong file extension:
obabel_with_chlorine.pdb.txt (3.8 KB) - File with
.pdb
file extension:
obabel_with_chlorine.pdb (4.3 KB)
